Alex, c'mon. Read in context.

Zmirak has contructed a theoretical situation in which a fundamentalist Christian conformed to all the polar-opposite points of the Obama/Ayers (radical Marxist) careers. His template is "Here's what the Left would see as the perfectly-symmetrical, mirror-image Other Side."

It's not a slam on fundamentalist Christians: the conceptual pivot is how the Left would see fundamentalist Christians.

A hermeneutic of irony works here.

Define "fundamentalist". Define "theocrat". Explain why the adjectives should not be viewed as offensive when applied to Protestants.
