Just like the crazy extremist backwards religious fundamentalists in the story want a new world order to purify the place against the ungodly global conspiracy.
Back then there was a bunch that had taken radical Lutheranism and pushed it to crazy extremist levels, now there is a bunch that has taken already crazy wahhibism and taken it to even crazier levels .
Come to think of it, some comedian the other day compared the American backwoods Rednecks (decended from Covenanter Rednecks) with the crazy clans in afghanistan or pakistan.

I'd like to pause the discussion right here and point to this shining example of rhetoric from an indoctrinated socialist.
As you can see, it has very little basis in fact.
Starting with the assumption that the first Anglican settlers in what would become the United States were "backwards religious fundamentalists" who entertained theories of "global conspiracy", and ending by labeling them as "rednecks", a term which has absolutely no relevance to the people of the day, Tribesman has demonstrated his complete inability to make an objective judgement with a basis in reality. This is not entirely surprising, as Tribesman hails from a centrist, and therefore, socialist nation.
Note the way that he distorts history in an attempt to rationalize the beliefs he has been taught. To most of us they appear ridiculous, but to him they are truth itself. He completely disregards the success of free societies in the modern world in favor of a dogma that has kept him and his people in the shackles of state control and religious violence. He has no idea why his nation is regarded as being "backwards" amongst other western nations, and he may not even realize why.
Is this kind of indoctrination that we want for our children? Do we want them to think for themselves or do we want them to embrace state indoctrination?
This
is the "third" way. It is just an indirect route to the "second" way, which is socialism. The proponents of the "third way", like Tribesman, don't realize that they are opening Pandora's Box. Fiat power given to a fiat entity will invariably result in abuse of power. As the maxim goes: "Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely". All they know is that they have a desire for change of some kind, and they are willing to trust a fiat monoply to effect it.
I fully expect Tribesman to post some brief response to all of this, but I expect that it will not be detailed or intelligent. If experience is any guide, he will be completely unable to defend his position, and he will resort to brief and cryptic remarks that imply his superiority.
What do you say, Tribesman?
