Some­times I won­der just how sheltered I must be. I’d hon­estly never even heard of the Church Uni­ver­sal and Tri­umphant before I read this art­icle on Black Sun. They’re a rel­at­ively recent reli­gious move­ment (some would say cult) that appar­ently spends a sig­ni­fic­ant amount of of time chant­ing man­tras that, in effect, demand God kill their enemies. Some­times they wave “cere­mo­nial” swords around while they do it.

All I’m going to add is the reflec­tion that when a band called Hatebreed com­pose a song sug­gest­ing there’s some­thing overly aggress­ive about your reli­gious pos­i­tion, it might be time to rethink your world-​​view.
