Yeah, and that’s assuming they even adhere to any consistent values, especially the post-modern types who view everything as relative and fluid rather than fixed right down to morality. They’re basically the Joker. Though to be fair, Jesus can technically qualify as extremist, and he’s right wing. And I tend to be extreme in my views as well, mostly because I hate grays and relativism, which I see as no different from nihilism.

Yes extremism doesn’t have to be a negative thing. It’s very appropriate for beliefs relating to moral values, if they’re the ones stated in the Bible. Liberals don’t seem to understand that Christianity is not political, nor do proper Christians desire to control what others do. Jesus said “My kingdom is not of this world”. He also said if someone refuses to hear your message, shake the dust from your shoes and move on. But there are a few (far fewer than they claim) examples of Christianity being used for a negative purpose. Extremism can also be a bad thing.
