The majority of Christians in the US believe in gentle persuasion at worst and a true live-and-let-live attitude (as the Constitution encourages), as long as their own beliefs are not used against them. There are crackpots in every religion. They are not the norm. Yes, we need to be cautious, but no, we do not need to be paranoid. I refuse to be worried to distraction by any group. Considering that the US is more secular and more tolerant now than at any time in the past, I'd say you hit the nail on the head. That's not the problem. The Christian fundie zealots are planning to seize power WITHOUT the consent of the general public. Most revolutions have had the support, either active or passive, of at least a plurality of the population. You need only look around you to see that rabid Christian zealots are not the norm, yet the small portion of the population who are rabid zealots want to use the mechanisms of democracy to seize power and then force their narrow interpretation of Biblical law on the rest of us without our consent. They want nothing less than a Christian Iran, with preachers and other self proclaimed "men of God" in power who will not be subject to anybody but God. Seeing that God isn't around to tell them what to do, they're free to go hog wild and make up their own version of Biblical law, then force it on an unwilling public. Sheesh... you are one screwed up 'tard boy. Please, continue to tote. dxAce Michigan USA |
