I need a time machine to send them back to the Dark Ages...

 Christian Fundamentalists scare me. They scoff at using rational thought to guide their decisions. People who don't want to use the brain God gave them are frightening. The kinds of people who don't use rational to make their decisions do things like start wars, perpetrate hate crimes, and do things like terrorist bombings. The more fightening thing about it is when you ask one of them WHY they believe what they believe, and tell them you don't want to here the brainwashing propaganda they were fed as a child or young adult, most of them can't tell you. They fall back on rederic instead of real answers as to why they believe what it is they believe. That is horribly frightening. Someone who would harm you or wish you harm because of their beliefs and they can't even explain to you why they have them. You can't reason with someone like that, because they refuse to use anything resembling reason.

They also tend to scoff at science, right up until they need sugery or medical treatment that was brought about by that evil science stuff. They love all the conviences and medical break throughs that it has made, but they sort out the parts they don't like. Hell they even talk badly about the stuff they do like, until they need it. Did it ever occur to them that one of the other reasons God might have made us with brains is so we can use them to better ourselves and our world? I suppose not.
