30. I'll be honest. As a woman, I find it impossible to see the fundamentalist "point of view"

in any light but horror.

When fundamentalist religious assholes decide to stop being assholes (cruel, vicious assholes, actually) towards half the human race, I might give a little more of a shit about how they are treated.

Frankly.

It's probably not a "good" view to hold, but I'm tired of their shit. ANY person who chose to "sit-in" with those assholes, "peacefully" or not, I can't find a whole lot of sympathy for. Sorry.
