Simple answer: The Internet. In Medieval times only priests could preach fire and brimstone from the pulpits of churches but now millions of people can, at the click of a mouse, listen to some religious fanatic preaching against the evils of the Western world and urge people to rise up and sacrifice themselves in the name of their particular god and with the promise of eternal salvation in paradise.
The Internet has been a modern blessing that we don't want to live without but at the same time it has been a curse. We have to live with it.
