Reply #30: There are far more of us (sane people) than there are of them

(the crazy Fundies). The group is so very VERY far outside the mainstream that I have to laugh. I do not believe they will take over. I just cannot see modern-day women who have the ability to think being willing to sign something like this "contract". I also think that there are plenty of people who strongly believe in the separation of church and state, and who will fight back (I am one of them). I'm not saying that these whacko's aren't trying to make things the way they think they should be -- turning this country into a theocracy, one religion (theirs) for all, etc. I just don't think they are going to succeed. I'm also not saying we should not pay attention to them; we should. But seriously, they are so far out on the edge that I don't think most people would follow them off the cliff.

However, what I do take seriously are the not-so-whacked-out righties who have been, and still are, causing great harm to this country. I'd rather work to stop the not-so-out-there things and people before the path opens wide for the really-out-there folks. It's sort of like treating cancer before it gets to the end-stage.
