Fundamentalism, no matter what its root, is bad. It is counter to peace and dangerous to freedom.
How can people who plead for the right to say and do what they believe is right, then demand that others renounce that same right. That will never work and we can only hope that sanity will prevail before really bad things happen.
What is alarming about this is that people just can't seem to learn that yet another wrong is not going to solve the problem.

The questions is why in the current state of world affairs do we get the rise of fundies?
answer that and you'll understand the whole mindset of these people with knee jerk reactions. They ain't thinking anymore, it's just defending the dogmas they adhere to unthinkingly to death at any cost. It's sad but not at all suprising. And the victims are always the innocents.
It speaks well of your character that you would ask this question :-)

It saddens me more. But it seems inevitable, a continuation of the way that Christian (or as Andrew Sullivan says, "Christianist") leaders have been leading their flocks.
