“Nothing like making fun of Fundamentalist Protestants to get conservatives united”
You ought to try being a Mormon around here.
Yes, mormons get bashed a lot here. I know.
But the hostility to the religious culture of the American Heartland by the alleged "one true church" (Catholic, Orthodox, Non-Chalcaedonian, Non-Ephesene, what-have-you), when expressed in terms identical to those of the liberals, is really an atrocity.
At least mormons get called devil-worshipers and such like. There's no effete sniffing about "simple-minded fools" who believe in the supernatural (by people whose religion teaches bilocation, glowing corpses, and magical rose petal smells). And the pooh-poohing of the Fundamentalist attachment to America as the special country, naive as it is, is gag-inducingly hypocritical by the pompous children of Holy Mother Russia, Holy Spain, or the Greeks Who Invented Western Civilization.
No wonder so many conservatives hate Sarah Palin. She's a bigoted Bible-thumper alienated from the Ancient Unchanging Evolutionism of the apostles and church fathers.
