Certainty is the currency of fundamentalism; but being unwilling to question what you believe isn't a strength, it's a weakness.

I was a public school teacher for thirty years, and although I loved the children dearly, I would never enter such a homophobic profession the second time. Bigotry is the root of all evil. #publicschool #publicschools #publicschoolteacher #publicschoolteachers #bigots #bigotry #bigot #bigotryisthrootofallevil #bigotryisevil #endbigotry #eschewbigotry #gay #gayrights #homosexual #homophobia #racism #sexism #xenophobia #christianvalues #christianbigotry #fundamentalists #fundamentalism

Before we worry about religious fundamentalism anywhere in the world, we Americans should push back against the radical Christian nationalism in the US. The threat of Project 2025 is being made more real every day. On some measures, over 50% of its domestic policy agenda has been put in place.
November is our chance, maybe our last chance.

Take a look at e.g Matthew 25. It's no wonder "Christians" are so confused about their Savior's morality. When Yeshua haNozri says "compassion for the least liberates all" and a hack editor three centuries later says "OR ELSE CATHARTIC VIOLENCE DIVINE PUNISHMENT RAARRRR COSMIC JUSTICE ETERNAL TORMENT YOU PICKED THE WRONG SIDE DEATH FIRE DEATH"
"Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
"Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
"Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal."

They found a Lebanese religious fanatic to attack a community under western conservative and religious pressure, to which queer lives aren't worth a damn anyway, to justify the support for an unjust war, killing Lebanese civilians and stealing their land.

Voting for the Cage: How Fundamentalism Married Politics, Made Dissent a Sin, and Persuaded Citizens to Surrender Their Own Freedom
Democracy does not always die with soldiers at the doors of parliament. Sometimes it reports for duty on election day. The polls open on schedule. Ballots are counted honestly. The winner raises a sacred book, invokes an ancestral civilization, promises to protect the family, and begins deciding which families count. No voter writes "oppress me" on a ballot. The authoritarian vote is written in the future tense and addressed to somebody else. Silence them. Remove her choice. Keep him out. Close their school. Ban their book. Cancel their citizenship. Let the police decide which protest is patriotic, let the government determine which religion is authentic, which body is legitimate, which marriage is real, which history may be taught, and which citizen must forever prove a loyalty the majority receives at birth. People vote for a locked door because they are told they will keep the key. […] -

New interview with horror author Andrew K. Clark incoming
Horror author and poet Andrew K. Clark.Two days ago, I met online with horror author and poet Andrew K. Clark to talk writing, Christian fundamentalism, and a bit about his home Asheville, North Carolina — his body of work takes place in his backyard, Appalachia.
Like the previous interview with horror author Lana Casiello, the conversation went long and covered a lot of ground. Clark and I both were raised in Christian fundamentalism, though different flavors as he came up in a Baptist church and I came up in a Church of Christ. Much of his horror writing does delve into religious horror, a direct response to his own experiences.
And of course, it’s hard if not impossible to not draw comparisons between our current Christian nationalism state when discussing Christian fundamentalism. They are all intertwined.
For example, during the last presidential election, I opened up the Heritage Foundation plans for a second Trump presidency and as I read through it, it was clear to me that they were taking many of those fundamentalist beliefs and codifying them into politics. Which, if you’re unfamiliar with fundamentalist ideologies, you might have missed some of it or may not realize how far they plan to go.
I’m sure there were some women who voted for Trump who may be confused now that discussion is going around about abolishing the woman’s vote. But that’s fundamentalism for you: women aren’t supposed to have a vote, be able to make decisions of import, or hold leadership positions. Even this week, the Southern Baptist Convention moved to ban women pastors from their ranks.
All that to say, I think you may find my interview with Clark intriguing. I’ll be working on editing it down into episodes over the next month or two. In the meantime, you can pre-order his upcoming horror novel Hollow Folk which is set to release September 29th.

"Fundamentalist religions rightly see themselves as under assault from consumerist forces. Those are a dire threat to every religion’s existence. Fundamentalism wrongly sees depraved barbarism—a total collapse of the moral order—as the only alternative to its rule. Fundamentalism is motivated by fear, and it propagates fear."
