82. kristof is dumb. evangelical christians aren't necessarily fundamantalists
kristof continues to be one of the dumbest shitbags on the planet. he doesn't know what the hell he is talking about, as usual.

in many cases, there are profound differences between those who refer to themselves as evangelical christians and those who refer to themselves as fundamantalists.

its like arabs and muslims, some of each are some of the other.

i know many evangelical christians who espouse liberal viewpoints. i know no fundamentalist christians who do.

but in painting an absurd brushstroke by referring to fundamantalists as evangelical christians kristof is resorting to a specious argument meant to chastize those who oppose fundamentalism.

it is the pernicious nature of their absolutism which flies in the face of objectivity and rationality that engenders both fear and ridicule.

they are wolves disguised in the lamb of god clothing.
