"The radical fundamentalists will kill the country's movement to the right quicker than anything."
Who exactly are these "radical fundamentalists" you accuse?
the students of the scribblings of the desert wandering, sandal wearing, Bronze age goat herders (or fishermen if you prefer), try to explain to empirically trained people of science how their theories are faulty.
"Who exactly are these "radical fundamentalists" you accuse?"
Personally, the radical fundamentalists that I accuse are the ones who want to dumb down what's left of our science education in this country to conform to their personal religious beliefs.
Faith is one thing, and science is quite another. When religious leaders try to re-define science to conform to religious dogma, they're radical fundamentalists no matter what faith they belong to.
