16. I'm prone to spread that ire around w/o regard to political or theological pews

It is just as counterproductive for the left to kick me for having any religion at all as it is for the right to twist it beyond recognition into something truly evil.

Not saying you're necessarily going to do either of those things; I don't know if you're atheist, agnostic, or some other religion entirely. What I do know is that too many people on this website take an outright stormtrooper attitude, wanting to stick God for humanity's failings.

People messed this world up. We won't get anywhere by misplacing blame or failing to take responsibility for our own collective part in the problem. That's just a cop out.

For what it's worth, I do consider most fundies to be at least somewhat mentally ill, and the farther to the right they go, the sicker they are. And I happen to be delighted with the OP.
