15. No I didn't and I'm well aware of what the word "fundamentalism" means

What you don't seem aware of, is how relatively SMALL, and power-challenged

these people, as a group, really are...Small, yes, in relation to a nation of over 310 MILLION.

These "fundamentalists" live primarily in the relatively LESS powerful geographic regions

of the rural south and midwest.

They can pray all they want...They cannot "pray" away the United States Constitution or a mu tl-ethnic, multi-religious country

whose major centers of POWER lie in the North and Northeast. I mean, seriously, do you

imagine the power centers of Chicago, Los Angeles and New York City falling under the "spell" of this group of

ill-educated goofballs?...If you do, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.
