Unitarian Jihad Local #42

I am so fucking sick of fundamentalists.
Of any stripe. Any religion. Get the fuck off my planet, you sick fucks.

Fundamentalist religious nutbars (of, in this case, the Jewish variety) burn down a crematorium in Israel.

You know my standard for detecting fundamentalists, nowadays? People who think that their beliefs give them rights.

Hello, fuckwits. Beliefs do not give you rights. Beliefs give you funny little ideas in your heads that you walk around intellectually masturbating to. Beliefs give you things to talk about at cocktail parties, and have shouting matches with other fundamentalists about when they differ.

But they do not give you rights.

They don't give you the right to shoot abortionists.
They don't give you the right to crash airplanes into buildings.
They don't give you the right to burn down crematoria.
They don't give you the right to teach your mythology to my child.
They don't give you the right to lock schoolgirls inside burning buildings because they aren't wearing veils.
They don't give you the right to stab peaceful gay pride parade marchers.

They don't give you any rights.

You can believe whatever the hell you want to believe. You can talk about your beliefs to any adult you can persuade to give you the time of day. You can even, because I haven't figured out a way to stop you yet that isn't a cure worse than the disease, indoctrinate your own poor children into believing the same damned things.

But you don't get any special rights for believing them.

Think you do?

Then you're a fundamentalist.

And I am so fucking sick of you.
