Christianity as a political weapon as compared to other religions

[Torie]

"Liberal democracy, Orban continued,

    is liberal, while Christian democracy is, by definition, not liberal: it is, if you like, illiberal. And we can specifically say this in connection with a few important issues — say, three great issues. Liberal democracy is in favor of multiculturalism, while Christian democracy gives priority to Christian culture; this is an illiberal concept. Liberal democracy is pro-immigration, while Christian democracy is anti-immigration; this is again a genuinely illiberal concept. And liberal democracy sides with adaptable family models, while Christian democracy rests on the foundations of the Christian family model; once more, this is an illiberal concept."

The above was in the NYT today. My question for those who follow such things, is that the paragraph fungible in the sense that if you switched out Christianity for Islam or Hinduism, etc., would it seem as equally plausible. In other words, do politicians in the Islamic world and the Hindu world use the most "popular" religion in their communities as the book cover or Xmas wrapping for an agenda that is anti-multi-cultural and pro tribal, with the gender roles and tolerated attractions and relationships back to those of a pre-industrial society or whatever?

Or is there something unusual or specific about Christianity that makes it particularly susceptible to such a malevolent use? My suspicion is that all the religions tend to be retrogressive or reactionary on these matters, or used that way, but I don't hold a very fixed opinion on that. And unlike some, I don't get off per se as being an anti-theist, as opposed to a mere non-theist.
