Why must so many fundamentalist zealots spew their ignorance all over? I normally restrict my activities here to the Earth Sciences & Geology section, and so many times someone will answer a valid question about science with a totally asinine and intentionally misleading answer designed to recruit new people into their religion by making the asker of the question more ignorant of the subject, or more likely attempt to fill their minds with blatant falsehoods designed to make the religious myths more palatable.
Why don't you all come get your boys, and keep them and others like them in the "spiritually enlightened" sections where they belong?

There are only two requirements to be a fundamentalist. You must be willfully ignorant, only believe what you want to hear, and delusional.

For the most part, the silly science stays here in R&S - the Science sections are relatively free of that sort of deliberate ignorance and charlatanry.

Yeah, that sounds like a pretty fair description.

I am not a fundamentalist but a believer in God and I want to say that I complete disagree with what you say. I know several fundamentalist and they are respectful to my thought and what I believe.

Nope, that's not a requirement.
That's just your own take on it.
