Troels ForchhammerI'm curious to see how you define a Christian fundamentalist. Jesus certainly never condoned hatred, intolerance or narrow mindedness towards any group. In that respect true Christian fundamentalism exhibits none of the qualities you describe.

I'd say that the hatred, bigotry, general intolerance and narrow mindedness is pretty much the same - and that - in my eyes - puts them in the same category far more than the use of weapons puts terrorists in the same category as the national armies of e.g. the NATO countries.
So I don't really care whether Christian fundamentalists chop of heads or whatever - they exercise a psychological violence that is - IMO - far worse than physical violence (not mentioning actual physical assaults and other terrorist acts such as attacking medical doctors practising abortion etc.)
