He is best known for the violent criticism his book The Satanic Verses (1988) provoked in the Muslim community. After death threats and a fatwa by Ruhollah Khomeini, calling for his assassination, he spent years underground, appearing in public only sporadically.

Now I know in the way past, many other religions had their nutbars that would actually want/call for people to die because of their thoughts on said religion.
honestly though....has there been such a call by any "Western" religions against those that oppose them so vehemently?
Truly asking....dont recall any myself.
