    Here in the USA we have the word god preached and mentioned in ref to so many things.
    In islamic and judaic societies the same goes.
    How is it that we who live in the USA and zealously "praise" this god thing, think that we are not as fanatically involved in "faery tales" as those who zealously praise allah, or reject jesus but accept the concept god in their own way?
    Isn't that a powerful example of ignorance and hypocrisy at its acme?

    You speak in such generality, I consider that ignorant.  You cannot lump people together as a whole.  You should have phrased it that "some" feel this way.  BTW, this topic has been discussed many times, feel free to join in on the other topics.

      See, I'm not the only one thinking the question is just a mess of hodge-podge crap. 

      That has to be the most absurd, craziest question asked, here on HubPages.

      hahaha...Pack.
      Evidently you are a little "obtuse" and can't imagine the "broad" concept as it exists. Relax, take a deep breath, have a cuppa hot chocolate and try to put those 2 frontal lobes to use.
      It'll come to you eventually...I hope...:-)

        You are really narrow minded qwark and your attempt at name calling, fails. 

        I am done discussing this topic with you, as you apparently do not have the ability to be civil.

    Doesn't your first question just play "ring-around-the-rosey" with itself?

    Yeah, it does.

    So what are you really trying to ask Q?

      The grammar, syntax
      and punctuation are correct.
      I'm sure it'll come to you if ya just read it slowly again.

            All one sentence?  No commas, no nothing?  Are you serious?  You actually think this sentence structure is correct?  Really?

            Wow.  That doesn't say much for America's school systems.  How sad.

    Yes it is hypocrisy.  A fanatic is a fanatic, doesn't matter what the belief system is or in which they country they reside. 

    The only difference I can see is that the Christian fanatics who live in the USA are not flying planes into buildings or stuffing bombs into their underwear, on second thought, maybe they are.

      Disturbia:
      I finally got someone who can read with understanding to respond.
      Ty Disturbia.
      Christians, tho, have certainly done their share of damage ...eh?
      We try to convince others, the world over, to convert to christianity. Missionaries are out there beating the bushes for converts.
      Aren't jews and muslims?
      Yet for some reason, we, a "christian" majority nation, arrogantly think of ourslves as being "above" the others! Hypocrisy!

    Eating excessive amounts of sugar is fanatical.
    Constantly questioning the motives of theism, daily, on an internet forum, asking the same question a hundred ways, is fanatical.
    Science is fanatical along with the other obsessive compulsive humanoids.

    Claiming "Critical Thinking" is scientific, is just plain incorrect; not to mention hypo critical -a play on words moment.

    Have a nice day!
