For further discussion

I mentioned this in passing to Katherine, but I think it is something that I want to write upon more: Strange that the common enemy of the religious right in America and the religious fundamentalist in the Mid East is the urban, liberal East Coasters.

I guess fundamentalism itself draws people together. I was really surprised to learn that Muslim Americans voted overwhelmingly for Bush in 2000, until I realized that their cultural norms are very conservative just like the Christian Right in America.

LOL — that comparison never came to mind! Just goes to show that hypocrisy and intolerance are not the purview of any one religion — they’re merely the modus operandi of hypocritical and intolerant people, be they Christian, Muslim, Jewish, or athiest.
