re: #19 CuriousLurker
From my new/current favorite author, Amos Oz, who I think totally nails it in terms of the mentality of fanatics:
True, but I’d guess that most people want convert/persuade others to their point of view. Some of that is basic human nature. But that’s why I draw a line when it comes to efforts to control what radio shows people can listen to, who can have a job or run a business. At some point the basic human desire to persuade others turns into controlling zealotry.
