Can fundamentalist religion and liberal democracies co-exist?

I don't know.

1. Yes

As long as the fundamentals of that religion don't require violence or oppression.

So Islam is out.  Just say it, prog.

6. We always got along with Holy Rollers before Ralph Reed & Co. decided to exploit them...

....for political gain.

It's a big, big country. And being liberal means we can find room for just about everybody. "No religious test" goes both ways.

The caveat is that we don't let the narrower world-views take over the government and try to remake it in their personal god's image.

7. I'm not using liberal in the American political sense, but the philosophical sense.

If your fundamentalist interpretation of your religion requires you to convert others or murder them, they cannot co-exist.

10. Reading this thread I see that most of the posts are thinking

of fundamentalist religion as something like Islam. Whenever I see those words I think of our own homegrown rw religions. They have really screwed up our government since the 1980s when their followers started working against government and Democrats.

I don't think that it has to be limited to just religions that are foreign and jihadist. I think our own rwers do a very good job of destroying Democracy.

And here it is:

Liberals disgust me. (Now I don't have to remember to put it on each post).

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Many people do not see evil until the gas is flowing into the chamber. That is why they get on the trains in the first place.

Yeppers! Did a lap around that barn with a guy on FB. He also asked whether there has been any mass shooting in the US not motivated by religion. ::) When I mentioned Sandyhook, the recent SC church shooting, and the recent Colorado Springs shooting (the one where the shooter holed up in the PP facility), he rephrased his question, hoping that religion was somehow involved in those shootings, but I pointed out that it wasn't, on either side (the SC church was a target of opportunity for a racist who wanted to shoot a bunch of blacks).

Some Libs and Progs need moral equivalency among religions. If they aren't then the "Why?" question raises it's - to them - ugly head. They don't want to delve into the difference between a religion whose foundational teachings authorize the slaughter and/or enslaving of non-believers and a religion whose nominal adherents have done that, but in violation of that religion's foundational teachings.

Working against the dems I can agree with. That is the dems own fault there.  Working against the government, screwing up the government?  That is utter stupidity.  Even for a dummie.

As for the GOP destroying democracy?  Can you still vote dummie? Well can ya?  <crickets>  Then STFU you dumbass.

You know, it kind of bothers me--no, not really--that Hypertensive Bob, the TheMastersNemesis primitive, doesn't seem to be around to offer his illumination on this.

In fact, it's been a while since Hypertensive Bob's been around, period, and one misses his Hate-God diatribes.

One wonders what's up with that.

Wait, hold on.

 Is there more than just Kirk, the Las Vegas Leviathan, that has/had a shoe size as big as a toilet lid?

Ok, gotcha.  No worries, as I've been guilty of it myself. 

I was just sort of hoping we'd found another one legged and flipper-footed primitive to replace Kirk's carcass.
