Fundamentalist Subculture

Christian Fundamentalism

William Saletan has been writing on the ID vs. science wars in Slate for some time now:

... Fundamentalists have lost the media, the colleges, and the science academies. The battleground has been reduced to public schools, and creationism has been reduced to intelligent design—a pathetic, agnostic, empty shell. Creationists can't teach a dogma, so they "teach the controversy." They accept more and more of Darwin's theory, narrowing the dispute to isolated systems—the eye, the flagellum, the blood-clotting system—that they say Darwinism can't explain. ...

Dear Richard, I think the 1st amendment is great it allows for such interesting people to come out from behinde there walls of fear and allows them to speak thier mind clearly. Now i dont no what the point of yuor webpage is, but you are entilteled to every opinon that is on here. however i wish some of these stories would be your personal experience but U choose to listen to other people opinon rather than dig deep into the truths that may lie behide most of the articels.I hope that in your attempt to protect some you have not offened many others.Please allow me to extend the most heartfelt apolige for some over the top christians who sometime allow themselves to be carried away in what the believe, or wait no than u would have to apolgize for your side.I think Maybe You might decide to promote all sides of every thing and expose all wrongs rather done by christian, homosexual,black white latino muslim jew or any kind of anybody. please this is not written in anger as a matter of fact i am praying that God (Jehova) bless you in abundance and that one day you come to Know Jesus (son of God Jehova)as your personal Savoir.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Fundamentalist Subculture. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
