What a surprise; another "Christian" who thinks that RB shouldn't be "ganged up" on just because he espouses sentiments that are more in line with the KKK than any "Christian" church I ever heard about. You guys are certainly tolerant of racism, sexism and other extreme forms of bigotry. Kudos to you!
There is a significant and critical difference between agreeing with, or advocating for, a postion and simply being tolerant of the individuals expression of their views.
He is simplisticly expressing his tolerance of others views, and a disagreement with the verbose and inflammatory criticism RB's comments frequently draw. I am of firm agreement with his stance. The rational and civil person will respectfully permit the views of others and exhibit a modicum of entertaining their positions. This is only rational. To the converse, retort based upon generalization and thick with inflammatory remarks, are the hallmarks of the irrational, comparable to the proverbial caveman beating his chest.

Originally posted by OmnislashOf course; it is of the utmost importance to listen quietly and respectfully when someone is calling people "niggers", saying they dislike women who are, of course, intellectually inferior to men, describing someone else's church as "The Great Whore" etc. etc. etc.. I admit I should be more tolerant of these views. After all, I wouldn't want to make "inflammatory, irrational remarks".

I have sent a message to skeeter to see if she will play RBHill ten clan games, one on one against him. To me this is reminiscent of the ancient Old Testament challenge where the god's of Baal met their match against the one true faith. As I believe it was Elisha who even had the wood soaked in water, I believe that maybe skeeter may indulge you with R2-R3 as her first move. The gauntlet is thrown down.

Interesting that so many people's paragon of a "fundamentalist" Muslim is either someone from the Taliban or a group like Al Qaeda. So many scholars think their ideologies are NOT based on a proper (or even literal) interpretation of Islamic texts, in toto.
Does something similar apply with Christianity?
Originally posted by ivanhoeOne of the definitions. Course, I can hear your response:
[b]Sonhouse: "They all have one thing in common: Extreme pressure on people to convert."
So, this would be a criterion in your definition in order to establish whether someone is a fundamentalist or not ? Correct ?[/b]
I never put pressure on people to convert.....

Omni, gotta tell ya bro, I think you're backing the worng horse here. RBHILL is STANG's half-brother (hmmm...they both capitalize their names...co-inkydink?) and espouses the opposite ideals as Stang, but they're both callous, angry, judgmental, bigoted, racist attention whores.
Get on the right side of this one.
