43. Exactly! And I read the Bible and haven't attacked any countries
I also listened to disc 2 of the White album yesterday after posting this, and guess what? I DIDN'T KILL ANYBODY EITHER!

Fuckin' A!

See, only the loonies take something like the Bible or the White Album or their dog or whatever and use it as an excuse to act on their sociopathic urges.

39. North is Rushdoony's son-in-law
and now the keeper of the flame. The influence of the reconstructionists on the fundies as a whole though is becoming pretty frightening. These people are truly nuts.

22. Pat Robertson
We should hijack the word fundamentalist and start calling so-called conservative republicans like bush/cheney fundamentalist republicans. The description fits and has a more negative connotation.

23. Coors
I forget his full name, but the Coors magnate is a big-time Fundie (I think he's even a Reconstructionist). It's actually all part of a concerted plan: poor white trash goes to church to get drunk on Fundie religion, then goes home to get drunk on shitty Coors light.

Benny Hinn...OK, he's not really a fundy, he's a "Blab and Grab" guy...
D. James Kennedy

I have mixed feelings about Charles Stanley. He's a fundy, but he said once that abortion clinic proitestors should be arrested for trespassing...

36. David Barton
He's the primary pusher of the RW meme that Am is a christian nation.

He claims that the founding fathers did not devise a govt with separation of church and state.

He writes books, makes videos, does workshops (one at the Air Force academy.

Check him out on google or yahoo.
