A raving fundie fuckwit

Post #112,877 by pwhysall 8/6/03 2:55:36 AM Reply	A raving fundie fuckwit who was and still is clued up to the nines about Linux. Ravening, drooling creationist, too. I don't miss him. That kind of resistance to reality (plus the venom with which he spread Gawd's Lurve) doesn't endear a chap to me.

Or as I heard today, going out the door - a comment upon generic Fundies: ~".. and when someone is Certain that they know the Truth, and that most all others have it somewhat Wrong: violence is likely, eventually to follow - for no compromise, reconciliation is possible." (This was (an unk.) speaker's attempt to answer why? he "found persons with certain mindsets" to be genuinely 'scary'.) I thought Nick scary too. That tended to nullify pretty much my admiration for his undeniably gutsy battles against the oozing tide of techno mediocrity. For me, anyway. I don't even want to try to imagine what it was like for Janice - such that she, an obviously intelligent and compassionate person - chose another misogynistic World-Plan over: (whatever was) that status quo :( Ashton

In my several conversations...and my afternoon and evening with the man...never once was the subject raised. And, quite frankly, other people with "strong beliefs" of a non-religious nature have been in my house...for multiple days...and didn't carry on incessantly about certain subjects that they carry on frequently about in these fora. ymmv. So...while I understand from the participants in those "debates" that there were hard feelings...I don't share them. If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. _{Fudd's First Law of Opposition} [link\|mailto:bepatient@aol.com\|BePatient]
