[quote=Anonymous][quote]I am the "live and let live" poster you refer to. I am an atheist and a liberal. I believe in gay marriage and I am pro-choice. Therefore, you are completely wrong in your assumption. I truly do have a live and let live attitude toward the fundamentalists because I disagree with them on everything, yet I support their right to have any sort of church they want as long as they don't break the law. They also have the right to try to get politicians elected that support their causes. Why are you so afraid of living in a free society where not everyone agrees with you? Being offended by the repellent views of others is the small price we pay for a free society.[b] This idea that the christian right has an enormous influence over the future of country is silly. [/b]The 80's are over. Demographics are not on their side. If you are so worried, you should do the same thing that they do and try to get your own candidates elected. That is how a democratic republic works. [b]Based on your incorrect assumptions about me, you seem to be as judgmental and close-minded as the fundamentalists are.[/b] [/quote]

You are one naive athiest and liberal.  If you haven't noticed, check out the people that the far/religious right is getting elected across the country, the state laws/amendments they are passing (voter ID, amendments against gay marriage, the raft of crap supported by the VA AG, just to name a few).  Then please note the fact that in the past 10-15 years, this country has tacked significantly to the RIGHT, not the left.  You may view this phenomenon as the dying gasp of a soon-to-be-irrelevant minority, and to a certain extent I agree, but that doesn't mean they can't do enormous damage that will be very difficult, if not impossibe, to undo.  As for your last comment, yes, I'm intolerant of fundamentalists.  Whatever.  More importantly, there's just zero logical connection between "you made incorrect assumptions about me" and "you are judgmental and close-mided."  It appears your abiding philosophy is "live and let live" because you don't have the intellectual firepower to critically understand, much less analyze the underlying issues.  [/quote]
