    Why the intense outrage, why the over the top BDS (Bush Derangement Syndrome)?

    It's not very pretty.

    It will win you few converts.

    Perhaps you have such high regard for your radical Islamic Brothers because you share with then a certain kind of hysteria and the same utter refusal to consider criticism of your cause.

    Your politics some think is your religion.

    Does secular humanism turn into Das Sekular Humanizm, run by an all powerful state, run by enlightened bureaucrats who all think exactly as you do?

    Are you so rigid in your views and so horrified by those who object or differ, because, for you, your politics is a fundamental belief system.

    If that is the case, and you are willing to take a look at it, does it not boil down to a kind of madness.

    Is it your madness which makes you mad, and not really Bush who makes you so mad alla da tyme?

    We all need someone to lean on goes the song. Is this youe religion, and anyone who differs is a non-believing infidel?

    Hello?

    I'm a human being too, so excuse me!

    I'm just asking you to think. Your pony tails won't fall off if you think, my frems.
