It's like they talk to a mirror.
No ability to understand irony at all.
"During the dark ages, superstition and ignorance controlled the minds of the masses. A few brave men obeyed God and brought the Scriptures to the world."
And after that superstition and ignorance continued to control the minds of the masses.
And with "a few brave men", you mean "the ruling body and everyone else in authority, who suppressed learning and science for hundreds of years"?
Geezus Christ on a pogo stick.
Aaaaahh...
During the dark ages authoritarian Christianity was at its strongest... and progressively got weaker throughout the Middle-ages, the Renaissance and most of all during the Enlightenment. The most significant outcome of that latest period was arguably the establishment of the SECULAR states in France and the United States.

A few brave men ... brought the Scriptures to the world ...
Then they said, "Shit, no one understands this nonsense, and no one can read."

"I fail to see how a tv listing is in the least bit fundie. Epic meh."
LOLWUT? I see no reason why a tv listing can't be fundie, given that it's written in a very fundie manner by the folks running the fundie station that's playing this fundie show.
I mean, the controlling superstition and ignorance of the Dark Ages? That was the freaking Church. The scriptures were already brought, and it was bad. They didn't need more Christianity; they'd had that since bloody Constantine. They needed *science* and *art* and to DECREASE religious influence. Gyah!
As well as death diesese famine, ignorance, torture, atrocities, empires founded on greed and fear.
Oh! And vikings!
My that's a terrible typo. They go two sentences completely out of order!
A few bold men brought the Scriptures to the world, and during the dark ages, superstition and ignorance controlled the minds of the masses. This is their story.
So much more true!
The Scripture was a major part of that "superstition and ignorance", you ignorant bostoon!
Brave men usually DIS-obey someone, ya know...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
