As I am in the process of starting my own religion I really need devoted followers that will fullfill my every whim and not question any inconsistencies in my teachings. The problem is:
How do you create extreme fundies?
How do you create extreme fundies in a part of the world where such a thing as blind devotion to a single cause (my earthly enjoyment - or as I like to put it to my followers: the sacred promise of a worhty afterlife, devoid of all misery, through their actions here on earth) is frowned upon?

It will allow you to correct misspellings (if you're lucky enough to spot them) and it's there to be used. 🙂
you begin by learning how to write without editing... huh?
Edit: Don't question me. Just do it.
Edit: As seen above and here, you can also use the Edit function to append content to your message. Very powerful stuff, this.

You can't create an extreme fundie--they need to be grown. Sometimes they spring up as weeds, but most of the time they are very carefully pruned as they grow. I would suggest having children and sculpting them in the image you wanted, but if I did ever suggest such a thing I would have to kill the both of us.

Although, I really wonder what makes for an extremist fundamentalist. So, if anyone think they know the answer to this one, feel free to explain it to me. I will trust you blindly.

Scottishinnz, you shall be my Judas. Don't worry. He was actually a good man doing what needed to be done to fullfill the prophecy. 🙂

why would i want to follow you? what's your hidden x-factor?
(As if my x-factor were in any way hidden.)
Or explain to me, how extremist fundamentalists are really created. Where do they come from? And I'm not speaking about peaceful, generally religious people practising their religion without harming others. I'm talking about those who can't accept the variety of spiritual beliefs (and lack thereof) and has to force their own beliefs (or lack thereof) on others without actually questioning their own worldview to see if they're unquestionably right in the first place. Where does people like that come from?
