Ziroc - can we get a smiley that has a bucket of water being dumped on two cats fighting? I think we could use one.
Right on the money!

In passing, I'll put in that I view "fundamentalism" as one of our vaguest -isms.

I generally operate on the assumption that the word has two distinct meanings;

1) The pacifist live-by-Christ's/Buddha's/Mohammed's word crowd. Usually includes thoughtful, socially conscious people.

2) The Biblical Old Testament/jihad-hungry groups. Tend to be reactionary and intolerant.

Okay, I see a [img]graemlins/choc3.gif[/img] on the horizon coming to lecture me about bending the moratorium on religious discussion, so I shall stop here. [img]graemlins/outtahere.gif[/img]
