digitaldiscipline"I DO suddenly understand the crazy militant Muslims a little better. I don't know why I never put this together before, and it's not really much of a leap, but it just sort of struck me a few minutes ago...
Ever notice how the biggest jesus freaks are also the ones who love their guns the most? Mr. "parise God and pass the ammo!" is the same damn guy as Mr. "Alahu Akbaaaaaarrrrrr! (BOOM!)" Same guy. Only difference is, the one over her ein the west has health care and air conditioning and a 4-wheel drive and easy access to both White Castle and education, so he's got an awful lot more to lose than the guy in the turban with a time-share on a dead camel.
Suddenly the whole idea of a crazy violent nutjob being completely inspired by a holy book he doesn't understand just all comes into focus."
