Sincere and peaceful believers are tough people

RE: Sincere and peaceful believers are tough people
A lot of Anglican ministers I've had in the past were universalists. They didn't believe anyone went to Hell.

I agree that the fundamentalist mindset is a type of insanity, as I was caught in it myself for a short while when a teen. Anything that penetrates the bubble of belief must be fought, lest the cognitive dissonance break the bubble.

I was at a bible study where a couple said that capital punishment must a good thing, because it was ordered by God in the Old Testament. That is the type of nutty thinking that arises.
