Jesus and Jihad

"These are the best-selling novels for adults in the United States, and they have sold more than 60 million copies worldwide. The latest is 'Glorious Appearing,' which has Jesus returning to Earth to wipe all non-Christians from the planet. It's disconcerting to find ethnic cleansing celebrated as the height of piety."
