<Sorry, but some of them actually say stuff like that. Others just want the end of industrial civilization, at least for the great unwashed. > Well SURE... lot's of people say a LOT of stuff... that's the whole point. You just look around for outrageous viewpoints to support your own beliefs... you yourself then implicitly label the entire group supposedly represented by those viewpoints or quotes (often completely out of context I've noticed) as having that same viewpoint... ie. seek out hateful information and put it on others... As I said, it's simply pointing out splinters in others eyes... there are plenty of those in the eyes of all sorts of people you interestingly give a pass too. "Hating hate is still hate" -some guy. If you're so worried about these things why don't you do a web search for religious extremists and post all THOSE nasties... probably a lot worse. :) ??? Or maybe look into "anti-environmentalist" groups and compare them to environmental groups... do you REALLY think environmentalists are "worse", or "more hateful" than anyone else? That seems to be your premise... In case you didn't know... ANYONE find hateful quotes and relate them to almost any group... interestingly, they DONT. Wonder why? DAK
