Reformed school girl
Christine Rosen attended a fundamentalist Christian school, but the doctrinaire teachings -- and the scary sex-ed classes -- couldn't stem the tide of her questions.
By Rebecca Tuhus-Dubrow [2006-01-03]

  • Feel the rage!

    A bit of my own experience. The only thing that exremely religious people (of all sects and faiths that I've encountered so far) have in greater abundance than ignorance is arrogance.

    They don't need knowledge, or good hygene, or a bow to social norms as to when to shut up, they have (T)ruth!

    Anyway, for accounts of 'former insiders who will explain fundamentalism while allowing us to chuckle at it' I suggest you check out exchristian.net.

    A typical example: http://www.exchristian.net/testimonies/2005/12/fantasy-versus-reality.html
