11. Well Texans have to get rid of these Christian Taliban who are intent on

putting together a Christian version of Sharia
and Theocratic education which is no different
than the pernicious influence of the Madrasas
in Pakistan. Which, are the origin, along with
the Wahabi madrasas in Saudi Arabia of Islamic
Fundamentalism.

If you examine the doctrines of Fundamentalist
Jewish, Christian and Islamic movements there
is a surprising coherence in ideology and theology.

The three pillars of all three are Paternalism, Homo
phobia and Manifest Destiny and all three invoke the
specter of and end time global war between the righteous
and the infidel.

I hope Texans can rid themselves of the influence of the
Christian Right. I am very pessimistic about the outcome.

The war over textbook content is being waged in Texas for
one very good reason not lost on the Religious Right, the
major text book publishers follow Texas content standards
because Texas is one if not the largest purchaser of public
school text books. So the RW's know if they can Christianize
Texas schoolbook standards, the rest of the country will follow.
