Putting the "mental" back into Fundamentalism...
Here are quotes from a few Fundamentalists, explaining what Christianity means to them:
"I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle ... I point the finger in their face and say 'you helped this happen.'"-- Jerry Falwell, speaking about the September 11 terrorist attacks, The 700 ClubQuotes courtesy of mail I received from The Interfaith Alliance.
"You say you're supposed to be nice to the Episcopalians and the Presbyterians and the Methodists and this, that, and the other thing. Nonsense. I don't have to be nice to the spirit of the Antichrist." -- Pat Robertson, The 700 Club
"(T)he feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians." --Pat Robertson, The Washington Post
"Our goal is a Christian nation. We have a biblical duty, we are called by God to conquer this country. We don't want equal time. We don't want pluralism." --Randall Terry, Indiana News Sentinel
"Women are less equipped physically to 'stay on course' in the brawling areas of business, commerce, industry, and the professions." --Pat Buchanan, San Francisco Chronicle

It's days like this I remember why it's a good thing I don't own a gun.
*sighs*
I literally can't even fathom people being so hateful, stupid and willfully bigoted. I can't even begin to understand the appeal.
