LOL! No sarcasm tag needed. But we do need a little assistance in figuring out which side the sarcasm is aimed at-or is it aimed in both directions?

There is a certain view that fundamentalist Christians are dangerous, maniacal idiots, who don't even understand their own religion. I reject that view because the majority of fundamentalist Christians who I know personally are genuinely good people who are reasonable in their beliefs and valuable friends. I also know a few "fundies" who are dangerous, maniacal idiots, who don't even understand their own religion.

While I'm not a fundamentalist Christian, nor even a religious person of any kind, I have contempt for the "normal, everyday" idiots who take every opportunity to bash honest Christian beliefs. Some of these people I know personally, and I don't enjoy being around them and I try avoid them. But the specific target of my sarcasm is "Big Journalism" which is going to be milking this story for ALL the Christian bashing they can squeeze out of it.
