Starting with a long quote from Castellio, the reviewer compares the "medieval" religious intolerance of Calvin's Geneva and the Inquisition with the same kind of fanaticism practised by Al-Qaeda and their ilk in present-day Muslim countries. Muslims, and especially the Arabs among them, should follow the example of the Christians and "liberate their religion from this criminal way of denouncing others as heretics"
