“All of anarchism, libertarianism, and anti-Statism can be traced back to the rise of Protestantism. The USA - founded by Protestants (often extremist Protestants expelled from their own countries) is where the love of the individual and hatred of the collective is practically written into its Constitution, which is extremely Protestant in its character.”

“Their tradition began in Martin Luther’s ravishing love affair with the God he met in the Bible. It was a love for which he was willing to sweep aside any tradition or power structure that stood in his way. Since his day, Protestants have pursued that love in radically different ways: individually or through institutions, intellectually or emotionally, tolerantly or violently, calmly or restlessly, apocalyptically or idealistically, working within older traditions or radically rejecting them. Often that old flame has been reduced to a simmer or doused altogether, sometimes it has blazed beyond any control, but it is the same fire. To understand Protestantism’s enormous impact on our world, we need to understand the restless burning it has kindled and rekindled in generations of believers.”

“To outsiders, Protestantism may seem admirable for its role in promoting racial equality and in fighting apartheid, or it may seem culpable for its role in promoting racism and defending injustice. Yet it was only incidentally and temporarily a vehicle for those causes. Protestant movements that become too deeply attached to such social and political issues tend to find that they are running out of steam. Like it or loathe it, the heart of Protestantism’s message is a spiritual one, a message of salvation and of divine power.”
