Many of us Christians believe that people are basically evil with a proclivity for good. The opposite view is that people are basically good with a proclivity for evil.

@PlanetoftheAtheists That's the beauty of Poe's Law; you don't have to say anything about reactionary fanatics to prove your point. Just let them dig their own graves with their crypto views and staggering lack of self-awareness.
Unfortunately, I don't see the Republican party tearing itself apart as a force any time soon. Recent events show they can get plenty of mileage out of mere obstruction.

Mr. Blumenthal, you are a very wise young man.

You could have a good drinking game with this whenever he mentions the title of his book take a shot.

@renumeratedfrog I agree somewhat. I think a better analogy is from Mark 3 where Jesus was angered by the Herodians and the Pharisees. The NEOCONS are Herodians dedicated to large corporations and the Pharisees are the self-righteous conservative religious. I do not like Blumenthals style of sarcasm and hyperbole but his research is solid and thorough.
I also agree with your staatement that they are social darwinism and I might add eugenics.

LOL at this little soulless pansy wringing his hands over the "Christian right"..
Spend more time worrying about Muslim terrorists, you fruits.

it won't be so great when they start killing people. these people are potentially extremely dangerous- they aren't some innocuous sideshow at the circus.

Words from my mouth. Thumbs up!
any of you who doubt Max B's claims, just go onto the religious right's websites and let them show you their lunacy for themselves

Very interesting, but I don't think it's entirely accurate to paint the Republican party as Christian extremists. If anything, they are rabid Randians who are prepared to sacrifice their religious beliefs in exchange for political benefits. The religion is just a front. Their true ideology is the cult of individualism and social darwinism.
