Religious nuts

Not long ago, in an event held at a taxpayer-funded university in New York, speakers at a conference of primarily Christian religious activists called their political opponents "evil", said they weren't really Christian and compared them to the Nazis; promoted outrageous and paranoid conspiracy theories; openly rejected finding any kind of common ground or compromise with people who disagreed with their politics; and even called for the violent overthrow of the U.S. government.

I wonder why publications which normally warn us of an impending American theocracy - like, say, the Village Voice - have been so quiet about this?
