The Shiites in Iraq remind me of the Bible pounders in America

Really? How so?

Even see the threads where people bemoan the immorality of today? I have seen threads that have suggested that infidelity be against the law! When you compare them to the Taliban you get inundated with Holer-than-Thouisms and when you point out the egocentricism of their position it gets worse. I have gotten some messages (almost ALWAYS followed up by FReepmail) where they offer to "teach me the word," etc. etc.

Chances are good I know more about the Bible than most of these Christian Shiites -- but they scare me. Pat Robertson is at least as bad as any given Mullah.

As evidence -- in both instances -- we have irrationals following irrationals; the blind leading the blind, so to speak.
