I realize that this is a generalization.
On very rare occassions, you may see one or two of these people who can actually spell and form a coherent sentence. However, the vast majority are unable to use logic or stick to the subject at hand. Also, is it possible for a religious fanatic to have a debate without throwing bible quotes around?

Aboukir - You're right, it is 'occasions'. A thousand apologies for offending you, sir.

Christianity and fascism are not necessarily mutually exclusive: witness Franco and Mussolini. It may be that some Christians have a problem with the concept of fascism, a political theory but also a quasi-religion (I do). I don't understand what fundamentalism has to do with it. By the way, "occasions" has one "s," no two.

Maybe people don't want to debate someone who glibly lumps Christians in with neo-Nazis.
Maybe people don't feel too comfortable engaging in debate with someone whose idea of gently inviting them into the debate is to start calling them "fanatics."
If you want to engage Christians (or anyone else) in a coherent debate, the first thing to do is to refrain from antagonizing them by equating them with Nazis and calling them overemotional names.
I'd say that maybe a lot of Christians think it's hypocritical for someone to call for coherent debate, while at the same time doing something that's very incoherent, illogical, and unfair -- namely, lumping Christians in together with Nazis.

I never get my hopes up when it comes to getting anything intellectual out of a christian fundamentalist or fascist. I get let down too often.

Same thing can be said about liberals, environmental wackos, PETA, etc. All such groups have such people. I think your generalizing may show a touch of it in you.

You're way off base.
And, WTF is a neo-fascist? Sounds like one of those catch-phrases that liberals are fond of labeling people with.
