Liberalism vs. Religious Extremism

Sam Harris, author of a book that ripped religion as the greatest danger in modern society and favored instead the complete dominance of enlightened and secular liberalism, writes an Op-Ed piece in the LA Times this time chastising liberalism as the keenest danger to our civilization via its wholesale disregard of the violent danger originating from religious extremism. He argues that, strangely enough, it is the religious fanatics of the West who may prove to be our savior against the threat from radical Islamism:

Being generally reasonable and tolerant of diversity, liberals should be especially sensitive to the dangers of religious literalism. But they aren't....The people who speak most sensibly about the threat that Islam poses to Europe are actually fascists.
