No it's pretty much the view of all Christians ... who believe their group is right and everybody else's group (most of the Christians) is wrong. It's a very popular opinion, by supposed insiders, that Christianity is a mess.

It's not the dark ages because of the secular state. The secular state rose up and threw some fixes at Christianity ; stripped it of it's political power, but couldn't put Humpty Dumpty together. So Christianity stays a mess. It's a conviction. What do you expect? Thank God, or rather the secular state, for the fixes so far.

Hard to tell where the crazy begins, and where it ends. I guess I wouldn't have that trouble if I just stuck to one news source.
