2. remember, when dealing with this type of fundie-
they don't even read the bible, so they certainly aren't going to read the constitution

Fundamentalist Christians are the ultimate personification of "if it feels good, do it"

5. You are SOO right
I used to know a Born-Again fundie, and he didn't even have a real bible - just a binder with selections from the bible (really, small excerpts) and two or three pages on what his preacher wanted him to understand.

SO instead of reading, thinking, and learning, he happily listened to whatever he was told and had complete faith in it.

No wonder Born Agains want to convert as many people as possible - they get power over their weak minds.

4. This is the type of injustice we all should be screaming about.
