I should have said "vocal groups in the U.S." Don't really care what creed they espouse. Fundamentalists bother me; fanatics scare me.
And the atheists have *many* fanatics in their midst. Like the Dominionists or the zealot Muslims, they have looked at an infinite universe and declared: "I have it all figured out and my way is the only way." A starting error that is unlikely make for tolerance of others.

But... that's... so sane.
I'm just gonna take your word for it that roseross is batshit elsewhere. Looking at the unexpanded threads was enough to convince me that splooge was flying from all sides.
