When I hear fundamentalists, whether they are Christians or Muslims, spewing hatred for other people: gays, "infidels", other religions, I think, wow, the Devil is really a smart cookie, he's got all these people doing his dirty work. All he had to do was tell them he was God.

No - I don't think they're perfect at all, but calling them devil followers is probably overkill. Can't a person be a jerk without being involved in Satanic worship?

Actually there are some excellent Evangelical churches, but they exist by luck, and because they found a good preacher. There are no evangelicals that I know of who use scripture to pick preachers and to use the doctrines which are there to promote accountability. Mat 18, and the letters to TIM. Somebody needs to expose this problem b4 we all pay for it. Evangelicals have people in high positions who do not meet the grade, and recently that has been exposed. Lets see if they get the p[icture and start insisting on expository preaching to weed out those who have twisted scripture.
Their leaders even here in this forum sometimes state they are not accountable to their flock but scripture says different. I have one of these on my tail violating perfectly good questions which shows the kind of preacher some churchs have.

That would be the most efficient explanation for a whole lot of problems in the world. That would also make the Devil the most crafty, cunning, and dangerous forces to afflict human kind. Then again, getting people to do your dirty work, and help to destroy humanity is not all that difficult if you take into account human arrogance and ignorance.
I will ring your doorbell and run away!!!

Anytime any of us react any way other than how God wants us to, we are pawns of the devil. That includes everyone, from every faith (or non-faith).
That's why it's a good idea to study the Bible: to find out what God wants us to act like.

Nope, they are just more parrots repeating what the other
parrots have brainwashed him into thinking, without doing any
thinking of his own. Sort of like you. Why would you believe in
God or the Devil ?

No. They are just not thinking outside the box. They are not creative in promoting and spreading the word of the Gospel. They do it by scaring you. People dont like to be scared or upset. They just dont know how to sell the word of God.

Whoever does not love his brother is a liar, the Truth is not in him.
It is not a market cornered by fundamentalists

Yelling and shouting are the sign of ignorant people.
The Devil is probably sitting around laughing at all that they do.

It is not nice to clump. You should stay away from the places anyone spews. Very unsanitary.
