Ted, > Do you feel the same way about Christian fundamentalism?

Not even Pat Robertson writes poems of Christian "freedom fighters" strapping bombs to themselves.

That's one problem I have with those trying to equate Islamic fundamentalism with Christian fundamentalism. The difference is huge.


You think Christian fundamentalists are better because they don't strap on bombs? I don't see much of a difference....not strapping on a bomb does not make them any less violent. In fact, it was Christian fundamentalists who have supported Bush strongly in this violent war in Iraq, encouraged the bombing of Lebanon by Israel, and are pushing Bush to attack Iran.

Because they keep their distance from the killing that somehow makes them better? I don't think so.

Fundamentalism seems to lead to religious extremism which, in turn, tends to provoke violence.
