An extremely insightful video on the mindset of America’s religious right, taken in the days following the 9/11 attacks. For some reason I only discovered this video recently.

Seeing people in positions of power talk like that is terrifying, it sure does add credence to the claim that the religious right in America are in some ways as extreme as those in Muslim countries (although their doctrines are perhaps not as dangerous). I find the idea that some people living today are going to die believing nonsense like that really sad. I just finished reading The End of Faith by Sam Harris that discusses the dangers of religious faith (even moderate), and would highly recommend it. Google Sam Harris to visit his website.
