9/11 changed my mind as to what a motivated theist can do.
I then learnt more about the politicising of the american christian right, the more I learnt the less I liked.
A lot of theism seems to consist of wilfully stangnating the advance of society and imposing their aberrant morals and standards on the rest of us.
I give you:
teaching intelligent design in schools, halting stem cell research, stoning women for adultary, beatings for 'not being decent' and a million other small ways that they try to control us.
I cant shop after four pm on a sunday because of god!
So yes I mind theists coz they cant stop meddling.

You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
