    "Religious fundamentalism is probably the most dangerous thing in the world at the moment, ... Christians or Muslim, I'm not making any distinction." - John Dominic Crossan @ 4:10

    Emery posted this video on another thread. I thought it was so interesting that it deserved its own thread. Enjoy!

    Thanks Emery!

    NOTE: The video is embedded below because it kept showing up twice for some strange reason. Weird!

    Thanks 00DAD!

    I loved this video the first time I found it. JDC is a great speaker and an intelligent bible scholar. His views on the bible and beliefs are a little awkward but still a great teacher.

    I disagree with a lot of his work but I soooo much love listening to him....there is something in his voice that just hooks me. I would love to meet him and just hear him talk about WHATEVER.

    Fundamentalism is a form of mental illness. I do agree Fundamentalism is dangerous, there are other things in this world that are equally as dangerous (ie greed and unsustainability). Anything that leads to a path of negativity, disablement, and destruction is dangerous.

    Ive read most of his books and enjoyed them. He has a nice writing tone. It is very accesible.
