<<If your thinking is ideologically based and your ideology in turn is based on faith, then reason and thought no longer have a seat at the table.

You banter with them and can see clearly the extreme right wing seems incapable of learning. It is like the Republican party has devovled into a group that, as you say, run on ideology alone. Very scary for our country. As you know better than most, it is impossible to reason with them.

I don't think many people know as well as you who have tried, just how unreasonable the right wing is.

They are increasingly denying science. How in the hell can one do that-lol?

"Well we are not so sure any more that 2 + 2 = 4 and that the world is round. Take a look, does the world look round to you??

That is the sort of response one might get from them and then when you say we have satelites, they will say: "and you trust those lying scientist's who get grants from the govenrment?

They are that irrational.
