I don't know, I don't think the Christian fundamentalists pose the same threat. They haven't starting plane bombing the country have they? I do agree that fanaticism of any sort isn't a good thing, and I think we should all be on our guards against it. But that's one of the things that makes America great, we have the ability to compromise with each other.

<< Very little difference between the Islamic and Christian versions of religious fundamentalists. >>

I don't feel that the Christian fundamentalists could ever be as deadly and destructive as the Islamic ones. If the Islamic fundamentalists were in control of the world, everyone would live in the stone age, as they do. The Internet, and technological achievements, would die, since they would not have the capability, nor the intelligence, to keep it going.

Because the Christian fundamentalists don't have majority power, they will not show their true face. If they ever get total power, they will be intolerant, but not as much.
