Narby, surely by now you realize I know that and purposely chose the term. I equate it to "fundies" and other such terms. Lighten up and enjoy a few laughs on the subject.

So you're endorsing the use of the pejorative word "fundie"? Ok.

I still don't think I'll use it much though. And I doubt I'll lighten up either. I think this is a serious debate because attempting to insert a particular flavor of Christian fundamentalism into conservative politics would kill it. Just the same as the hard core lefty politics are now killing the Democratic party's ability to get elected.

And if conservatives no longer get elected, then even the "fundies" can write off ever getting things they want like decent judges, abortion ended, school choice and others. So it's in the "fundies" best interests to stay away from actual religious dogma (which is what creationism is) and stick with issues that can be argued from a strictly secular viewpoint such as the above.

He CAN'T 'lighten up'.

He has no Savior.
