The Global Fundamentalist Apocalyptic Conspiracy

In a sense, the current era remains part of the European Renaissance, a.k.a. The Age of Enlightenment. Now everything enlightened seems to be under attack everywhere, casting shadows of a comng Dark Age.

It's certainly taking hold of Islam and Christianity, and Right-wing Orthodoxy in Judaism.
Again these three clash at the flashpoint of history, Jerusalem.
Flinty eyes hard with hatred strike stone of threadbare earth,
shooting heartless sparks to enflame old injuries.
Hot mindless winds of passion toss aside civility, and trade,
and tolerance, and compassion, and love.

Are we to stand silently by and let our world be sucked into another firestorm?

Well?
