Jesus and Jihad

An interesting article that caught my eye, from yesterday's SMH. Reproduced from the New York Times. [Free registration required to view the article].
 
Jesus merely raised one hand a few inches and a yawning chasm opened in the earth, stretching far and wide enough to swallow all of them. They tumbled in, howling and screeching, but their wailing was soon quashed and all was silent when the earth closed itself again. [From, The Glorious Appearing, the latest Left Behind novel]

Nicholas Kristof claims, 'If a Muslim were to write an Islamic version of "Glorious Appearing" and publish it in Saudi Arabia, jubilantly describing a massacre of millions of non-Muslims by God, we would have a fit.'
