An ignorant Society is a controlled Society; a controlled Society is a subjugated Nation.

Fundamentalists are a welcome counter to the relativists.

Thank you for an excellent and truth filled article. These people are not your garden variety church-going folk. They are dangerous lunatics.

Perhaps we can have a law passed saying people cannot bring their values into office when elected.

That article is a darn good reason to be anti intellectual.

BS, IMHO. People who believe and espouse myths as solutions to today's problems (or to rile up their base) are not a counter to those who use facts and science.

Is crime a welcome counter to lawful behavior? Is obesity a counter to healthful living? Are lies a welcome counter to the truth?

In the US we are supposed to be free men (and women ) Toss freedom of religion in the trash and you can kiss free speech goodbye.
