39. Just for the record, I am talking about Christian extremists

Mon Oct 27, 2025, 05:49 PM

Monday

and I assume you are as well. My comments don't apply to all Christians. There are many who have genuine religious beliefs I don't actually share, but I respect their right to imagine the universe in their own way, just as I do. I would not automatically consider a person a cultist because they believe in a more literal nanny god than I do. I don't insist that everyone agree with me, and I can certainly live and work side by side with people of different faiths.

The Christian extremists, in my mind, are no different from the Nazis, the KKK, Islamic terrorists and the like.
