Default Re: how did the extreme religious right get that way?

I think that any time you put a group together, the original purpose for the group becomes twisted and distorted over time. The mindset of what *we* believe, and the incessant need for the human ego to be *right* and the other person *wrong* (which further bolsters the human ego and continues the cycle) is what, in my opinion, drives groups to fanatacism and the crazy behavior we are seeing these days from so many different groups.

Criminals are probably responsible for 2% of the misery on our planet. *Respectable citizens* are responsible for the rest...
