re: #58 Sharmuta

It’s natural that people on this blog, that have a similar political point of view, would agree on many topics. Is that groupthink too?

But this is a blog of individuals- each with their own opinion(s) on various topics. That many of us have accepted evolution because of the evidence doesn’t mean we’re engaged in “groupthink”. It means we’re engaged in thinking, period.

But sometimes when one has a different opinion and posts, they are attacked. There is a bit of an anti-Christian bent by some posters. I remember one poster using a really nasty term for Jesus Christ and you mentioning fundamentalist Christians. Would you consider this man a fundamentalist Christian.

If he came on this blog with an argument under the tag ChristianScientist, would you vilify him?
