Reply #100: "you're fundamentalists"

[John Gauger]

Who here is a fundamentalist? Am I one? I'd really like to know. You don't have to be afraid of calling me such. It's not against the rules, and hell, you've shown that you are not afraid to break the rules of this board. So if I am one, I'd like to know so I can discuss the matter. See, you keep making these accusations about people being closed-minded, intolerant, bigoted, and trying to shut down rational discussion. But you aren't giving any examples. Who is these things, and when? Is this an accusation against me? I would genuinely like to attempt to rectify my behavior if so.

You know what might help? If you defined "fundamentalist atheist." I've been combing through your posts, but I can't seem to find any definition of what a fundamentalist atheist is (maybe it was in one of your posts that got deleted.) I think the best way to alleviate the problem is to first have our definitions understood and then to discuss specific instances of the behavior you have judged unacceptable.
