Thanks again to maladaptive....

Here's the question. I know I'm probably a bit biased when it comes to religion because I'm not religious. At all. And then you see these fundies, and even though you *know* the vast majority of religious people are perfectly reasonable people... you end up twisting your views a little to see all religious people as potentially creepy and illogical and, well... insane. In a bad way. After all, they all believe in weird things that can't be proven, right? Right? It's all fascinating, but... different.

But I'm told that many religious people have the same views about non-religious people. And I know full well that most people on either side don't recognize their own bias when they walk right into it.

So, here's my question: Are there any atheist/agnostic fundies out there I haven't encountered before? Because I'd like to see, just for my own edification. I'm not sure if my belief that there aren't any is because, well, there aren't any, or if it's because I just don't see them as much/clearly.

(Oh, and click the scary link. Thanks)

That scary link reads like Landover Baptist to me, but I'm sure somebody somewhere actually believes it. (Funny how a lot of people seem to think that the Bible was written in the 1950s. "Men's clothing" ca. 4500 BC was probably flowing robes.)

I think the people who claim to be mortally offended and insulted by the mere practice of religion might qualify as fundie atheists. You know, the ones who get all up in the face of whomever was unwise enough to admit to being pious in their presence. (I met a few in my college years.)
