One of Wood’s main theses is that O’Connor--the novelist, short story writer, and devout Catholic--preferred the excesses of fundamentalism, which at least takes God seriously enough to take him literally, to the bland “civil religion” practiced by most Americans, including most Catholics.

Why is it that Catholics don't seem capable of giving Fundamentalists any kind of compliment but a left-handed one?

My opinion only: Fundamentalists do harm to the body of Christ by forcing false choices. And, subsequently further secularism more than Christianity.

Why is it that someone who says Jesus Christ is a false god and Christianity is a sham constantly try to spread divisions where none exist?

Someone works to cause division and arguments between Christians because they are afraid of Christians standing together on common ground to resist the anti-Christ society and all the little anti-Christ factions that only thrive when Christians are divided.

Someone who denies that Jesus Christ is God from God, the only begotten Son of God who died for our sins so that all who believe on him will be forgiven and have eternal life "wondering" about a Catholic "left handed" compliment regarding Fundamentalists is every bit as dedicated to seeing anti-Christ laws and leaders controlling this country as King Barry and his crew are.

You can recognize such fifth column liars by their use of the same tactics all the other fascist democrat thugs use. They pose as several different posters, constantly misquote and twist what others say, spread misinformation and disinformation, and always, always, always, lie about what they actually believe.

Usually such fifth columnists deal with religious subjects by pretending to be an "impartial observer", when in reality they are totally dedicated to the anti-Christ agenda and very, very, dedicated to spreading divisions among Christian conservatives any way they can. Once they start an argument, though, they change to another name and play the role of "expert" on one side of the issue or the other. Such people are dedicated to their task because the most frightening thing they can imagine is Christians uniting to end the mass murder of infants, the exclusion of Christianity from the public square, and the nation being governed by Christian principals rather than by fascist humanist principals.
