    Fundamentalism make my blood run cold... some one posted a link to this site on the discussion about that nasty little snuff-religiography book series, and I had a root around.

    This is pretty damn mad, and shows how despite their profession to be fundamental followers of a literalistic Bible tradition, they are as prepared to interpolate beliefs with no foundation;

    The granddaddy of Heaven-related questions has to be: "Will my pet go with me in the rapture?" Usually, I tell people not to worry about their furry friends. Even if all pets are left behind and they suffer the worse fate of starving to death, I believe the owners eventually will have the option of reclaiming them. Some Christians would rather stay behind and go through the tribulation than have Fluffy or Fido get lonesome. If a person wants to ensure the continued existence of his pet, he needs to first ensure the safety of his own eternal soul.

    This one makes me hope that the conspiracy style theories that Bush is overly influenced by fundamental Christians are just theories, as a belief that Babylon needs to become a world capital would seem to be likely to influenece peoples' actions;

    And this is just sick; it's the Rapture Index. WOrth painting the porch? Check the Rapture Index;

    Does anyone feel that at some point certain professions of religious belief will be viewed as anti-social and inimical to peaceful society? Of course, if they are, the ones identified as such will be beside themselves with delight as they will see it as the fulfilment of prophecy, but seriously, some of this stuff is as worrying as reading an Aryan Nation or neo-Nazi web site. The fact that 'God' and 'Jesus' and the 'Bible' are used as justifications for this world view are not good enough to remove it's offesiveness. It's like the dubs. "It's the end of the world as we know it, but I am saved by the grace of god hallelujah!" is NOT what Michael sang....

    Oh, there's so much, like this bit, the potential anti-christ roll call;

    Hey, at least Gorbachev has a mark on his forehead!

    There's loonies everywhere you look, especially on the Internet. I'll bet if I surfed the web for a while, I could come up with some crazy, paranoid material posted by atheists, too!

    And if it involved looking forward to the extinction of most human life (as some extreme animal rights activists do), and was based on something as fickle as opinion, I would condemn it with just as much enthusiasm.

    Wrong is wrong, it's simple.
