Well sure Deris, I can educate you. Let's start with a definition.

fun·da·men·tal·ism [fuhn-duh-men-tl-iz-uhm], strict adherence to any set of basic ideas or principles: the fundamentalism of the extreme conservatives.

The big word in there is strict. See, if you want to be a true fundamentalist Christian, you have to practice things like non-violence, charity, and forgiveness for transgressions. Basically, all those good ideas that Jesus talked about that most Christians don't listen to.

Now a fundamentalist Muslim is supposed to "convert by the sword", which basically means threaten someone with death unless they follow the teachings of Mohammad.

Now most modern religions pick and choose the less distasteful parts out of their books and package up a good overall message to sell to people. But the dirty fundamentalists say that isn't good enough and demand a strict interpretation of their book. See how that might be a little different?

Fundamentalist Christians are people like the Amish or the Mennonites. Fundamentalist Muslims are people like Osama (even though he conveniently leaves out the parts of the Koran where it says not to kill innocent people.) See how there is a teensy weensy little difference between the two?

Consider yourself educated. Asshole.

EDIT
"religion" - 5,585 +2
"jesus" - 7,897 +1
"fundamentalist" - 2,033 +6
"conservative" - 1,425 +1
"muslim" - 1,318 +2
"christ" - 3,105 +3
"asshole" - 4,865 +2

So, you're saying that most Fundamentalist Christians should be called Pseudo-Fundie Christians?

Once again, another gay religious debate turns into a fuckin' semantics war.

Nah, fundamentalist is akin to a swear word now and should be used for people that bomb abortion clinics and hate on the homos. Jesus used to hang out with lepers and whores, I guess fundie Christians now a days are better than him.

Lets educate YOU.

Fundamentalist Islam means you adhere strict laws of the Qu'ran, and depending upon which sect - the hadiths to a varying degree. Fundamentalist Islam does NOT mean Osama, mr. Broad sweeping statements. If you want to compare Osama to anything, compare him to David Koresh, who was a Christian. Or Any other nut out there.

The Qu'ran has sects of those who adhere to a non-violent approach, as do Christians. However Christians also have violent sects who wish to kill/maim all of those who oppose their beliefs, etc al. (See Abortion Clinic Bombings, the NLF with Ethnic Cleansing, etc)

There's nothing wrong with Islam, there's nothing wrong with Christianity.

They are both religons, and thus are both equally stupid in my eyes. I spent 2 years in Iraq, I met lots of well adjusted "Fundamentalist" Muslims, who may have "extreme" beliefs to someone in the Western World, but in the Middle East it is normal. They were nice, never shouted "ALLHAU AKHBAR" and tried to kill me with a Scimitar, and even fed me.

I know plenty of Red Neck, KKK Gun Toting Christians who think they should blow up all of the "dark churches" in their towns. Its really all the same damn thing, the Bible, the Qu'ran, its just a different printing.

But hey, you EDUCATED ME LOL. Armchair Faggot uneducated predisposed to thinking they know everything via Wikipedia about the entire free world moron.


Oh forgot trash 06'er.

First off, thank you for your service to this county.

Second, stfu. Seriously, because you don't believe in religion it is stupid and they are all the same? Well that is good enough for me. What else do you consider stupid so that we may all shun and mock it? Please go and educate yourself before you go and spout retarded bullshit on a forum that has a majority of intelligent educated people because you are only embarrassing yourself.

Osama is no Koresh, he is a follower of his religion, he doesn't claim to be Mohammad jr. I'm no armchair faggot, I served in the Marine Corps before I got hurt bad enough to get discharged, and I am about as far from uneducated as you can get. And I didn't use wikipedia, I used dictionary.com kthnxbi

There's about four different ways that sentence could be interpreted, and all but one of them is disturbing, so I'll go with that one, but... Where would we get a goat?

This douche bag came to Monterey, I wanted to go laugh at him but all the branches were ordered to stay on base (or atleast away from the protest).

Excluding the old testament, where unbelievers got set upon by Lions sent from God.

Personally i think Lions send a far better message than a sword.
