The 4 Religions Fighting over America

The Middle Ages didn't apologize for human nature—barbarian invasions, heretic burnings, and noble oppression were called what they were.

America is currently experiencing a four-faction religious war that will determine history's course, yet we refuse to recognize it because "that doesn't happen anymore."
