[quote="φιλαλήθης"][b]Να ένα σύντομο απόσπασμα μίας συνέντευξης του μεγάλου φιλοσόφου και πραγματικού ακαδημαϊκού. Γενικά, συμφωνώ, αν εξαιρέσομε κάποια σημεία. Η εντονοποίηση των γραμμάτων και οι υπογραμμίσεις είναι δικές μου...[/b]: 
(Το σύνολο εδώ: http://www.chomsky.info/interviews/200704--.htm)
[i]Amina Chaudary: First, Professor Chomsky, thank you so much for your time. I’d like to begin with a very broad question. Current affairs tend to indicate that a tension between and within religions, some say especially in the case of Islam, lies at the center of many conflicts in the world today. Do you think religion is exerting a greater influence on foreign policy today, both here in the U.S. and abroad? Would you also address what happens when religion merges with politics – and how this is any different than other forms of identity merging with politics, such as ethnicity?

Noam Chomsky: Well the major problems of the world are those that appear in the most powerful states almost by definition, because whatever affects them affects everyone. And the most powerful state in the world by orders of magnitude is the U.S., and it also happens to be one of the most extreme fundamentalist countries in the world. Extremist fundamentalist religion may well have a greater hold in the U.S. on the public than say in Iran, though I’ve never seen a poll in Iran. But I doubt 50 percent of the population thinks the world was created 6,000 years ago exactly the way it is now. This is actually strange because way back in American history to the time of the colonists, there have been eras of religious revivalism. Most recently we see this in the 1950s, which was a big period of religious revivalism. That’s how we get phrases like “In God We Trust” and “One Nation Under God.” Religious revivalism picked up again in recent years. Until recent years, it was not a major force in political affairs. That has happened in the last 25 years and it is now an enormous force – fundamentalist religion, not all religion by any means. So, for example, [u]the U.S. has often been bitterly opposed to Christianity.[/u][=[b]Οι Η.Π.Α. έχουν υπάρξει συχνά πικρά αντιμέτωπες με την Χριστιανοσύνη[/b]] That painting (points to a picture) is an illustration of the hatred of U.S. leaders for the Catholic Church. It was given to me 15 years ago by a Jesuit priest. It is a painting of the Angel of Death on one side with Archbishop Romero, who was assassinated, and right below are six leading intellectuals who were murdered by an elite U.S.-run battalion. That framed the decade of the 1980s: Romero was assassinated by U.S.-backed forces in 1980, Jesuit priests in 1989 and, in between, the U.S. carried out a major war against the Catholic Church. Many of the victims of (President) Reagan’s efforts in Central America were nuns, lay workers, and for clear and explicit reasons, which you can see officially stated, like the famous School of America, which trains Latin American officers. One of its advertising points is that [b]the U.S. Army helped defeat liberation theology, which was a dominant force, and it was an enemy for the same reason that secular nationalism in the Arab world was an enemy – it was working for the poor. This is the same reason why Hamas and Hezbollah are enemies: they are working for the poor. It doesn’t matter if they are Catholic or Muslim or anything else; that is intolerable. The Church of Latin America had undertaken “the preferential option for the poor.” [/b]They committed the crime of going back to the Gospels. The contents of the Gospels are mostly suppressed (in the U.S.)[=[b]Διέπραξαν το έγκλημα-η Εκκλησία της Λατινικής Αμερικής- να ανατρέξουν στα Ευαγγέλια. Τα περιεχόμενα των Ευαγγελίων στην συντριπτική τους πλειοψηφία καταπιέζονται στις ΗΠΑ[/b]]; they are a radical pacifist collection of documents[=[b]είναι μία ριζοσπαστική πασιφιστική συλλογή κειμένων[/b]]. It was turned into the religion of the rich by the Emperor Constantine, who eviscerated its content. If anyone dares to go back to the Gospels, they become the enemy, which is what liberation theology was doing[=[b]Εάν κάποιος τολμήσει να ανατρέξει στα Ευαγγέλια,αυτά γίνονται ο εχθρός, που ήταν αυτό που έκανε η "θεολογία της Απελευθέρωσης[/b]"*].
