Record 15 · Faith & abortion
Called Christianity the most violent season
February 2026
In a New Yorker profile interview, Talarico compared Judaism, Christianity and Islam to seasons of a television series and gave his own historical judgment that Christianity had done more damage to the other two traditions than they had done to each other.
“My religion has done more damage to both of those religions than they’ve done to each other.”
Conservative assessment
Presenting his own faith as the chief source of religious violence is a striking posture for a candidate campaigning as a Christian voice.
