Your first paragraph:

FWIW I have no difficulty believing (as best I can) the first eleven chapters of Genesis.As for how He may have done it...."For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast" seems pretty plain.As far as I'm concerned He could have done it all in 5 minutes.

sounds real good. Then you come along and write:

This is my speach FWIW...fundies appear to be seen as radical nutjobs who actually believe the Genesis creation account as it is written and because of that rampant anti-intellectualism are prone to also believing all sorts of apocalyptical non-sense and may even be deluded enough to try and hasten along some of their fantasies and are therefore prone to harbor similar feelings toward their fellows as some terrorists do.They are at best stupid and ignorant and at worst to be feared.Just like 'fundy' moslems.

which completely contradicts what you just said.

If you indeed believe the first eleven chapters of Genesis and that G-d could have created the world in five minutes then what right do you have of calling anyone else who shares those same beliefs a "nutjob?" Is it because they are Protestant rather than Catholic and live in rural America rather than in Australia?

You've read me wrong ZC.

I should have been clearer,I didn't want to put a /s tag because I wasn't being sarcastic.

Me...fundies appear to be seen as..."

In other words this is how I perceive I and many others are being seen.
