Internal Flaws of Fundamentalism

[jamesq]

An interesting blog I read about fundamentalism, and the problems it's having retaining people.

Short version:

"Christian fundamentalism has three great enemies in the struggle to retain its children, judging by the stories its apostates tell: weaknesses in its own teachings, science, and hypocrisy."

All of which say that when reality goes up against mythology, reality generally wins.

Jesus, I hope so, because it sure looks to me like reality is losing.

Just because I think the bear can beat the pitbull, doesn't mean I want to be caught between them.

That's a great way of putting it!
