"Nothing fools people as much as extreme passion" Joseph Hall
Admittedly I don't know much, but I do know that our world is chock-full of bat-shit crazy people, and again we have witnessed horrible acts of terror perpetrated against innocents by these bat-shit crazy people, and again it is in the name of religion.
So while I may not know shit, I do know that religious extremists from all of the Abrahamic faiths have one thing in common, and that is their insane hatred of all pluralistic secular societies. I find it especially ironic that the people who love to hate always seem to cast liberals as the enemy...
Just so you know I don't give a fuck if you are a suicide-bomber or an abortion doctor killer, a conservative radio demagogue or the crazed heavily-armed fucktards driven to action by them - your first step should be admitting that you're a right-wing reactionary and an asshole. Whether you know it or not, you all appear to have the same goal in mind, that being dead liberals.
I saw a particularly absurd graphic on some whack-job site the other day. It said, "Liberals kill liberty dead". I guess we should just set aside the fact that the founding fathers called themselves liberal, and that the words liberal and liberty come from the same root word. In case you were wondering, the word liberal is derived from the Latin liberalis, which means "of freedom". But just ignore that inconvenient fact and keep believing that it's the liberals who are stealing your precious freedumbs.
I'm going to go ahead and generalize that all religious and political extremists (they're usually intertwined anyway) are nothing more than easily interchangeable douche-bags who might hate less if they got laid more. Why can't these people just fucking let it go, live and let live? Why does extreme faith always lead to pissing contests with a body count?
