I think the world sees fundies as a group of nitwits who accept the bible 100% as written, yet most can't offer a reasonable explanation to any of thier (the world's) educated discounts and doubts on many of the key fundamental issues, that they see as ridiculously easy to dissmiss as fable. The Blind leading the Blind. Another description they like to use is "Sheeple"

Yup, we do use that term to describe fundies quite a lot (I was surprised myself at how often it cropped up). Which is not to say the fundies aren't fond of it themselves:
Like this person , who thinks the term should apply to anyone who doesn't believe Kent Hovind is being persecuted by evil Darwinists.
Or this person , this person and this person all of RR.
Hypocrite much?
The problem is, many people, religious ones including, are not that arrogant as to asume that there is a way to have ALL the answers. Insecurity much?
Freespirit, I will take that challenge any day, any time. The question actually is, "Can you defend your beliefs?"
Bring it.
Sheeple, dipshits, idiots, ignorant, brain dead, the list goes on and on. You can't think for yourself, and are content to be spoon fed bullshit called scriptures that were written by MEN who wanted to stay in power and control.
Try growing a few brain cells, why don't you.
I think the world sees fundies as a group of nitwits who accept the bible 100% as written...
On the nose. To be entirely fair, the world has that view of fundies due to the words and behavior of the fundies themselves.
No, the world sees fundies as a bunch of nitwits who can't understand the simplest answers to their questions, so they have to say goddiddit, it's the only thing their nit sized wit can understand.
Yes, that's very good, you're 100% correct. We should mark this momentous occasion, because I'm sure I'm never going to say that again.
...yet most can't offer a reasonable explanation to any of thier (the world's) educated discounts ...
I know I didn't get much sleep last night, but WTF does this mean?
I may call you all those names, but mostly I call you "Liars!" because it is the most fitting description on you all. You may not like it, but the truth is not always enjoyable. You basically lie or are willing to lie to anyone about anything as long as you think it benefits your fantasy figures and yourself in the long run. You and your ilk are the most dishonest group of people I have ever encountered and if that is the tenet of your religions then I have no use for neither the religion nor you.
Close, but no. We know that NONE of you accept it 100 percent as written.
You can't as it contradicts itself so much. Which is why it is ridiculously easy to correctly dismiss it as fable. Go on, which Gospel account of Jesus's last words is the correct one, and why are the others inerrant AND wrong?
You're correct on the first part, the world does see fundies as a group of nitwits. But most atheists I know can refer you to educated accounts of the key fundamental issues. Whether or not you avail yourselves of the relevant material is another thing altogether. I suspect that you're too lazy to bother.
Another description we like to use is "Whooshies!"
The old "you say we're nitwits, but you can't answer my questions, so you're a stupid poopie-head nitwit, too".
Sheeple, I've never used that one. Sheep fucker, yeah, I've used that one several times. I've also used idiot, fucktard, asshole, asshat, and then some of your basic terms, like bastard, son of a bitch, etc. But you, maybe I should use a new one just for you. How about, goat-shit eater? That one sounds good. Go to hell, you goat-shit eater.
"I think the world sees fundies as a group of nitwits"
If I were you I'd take this as a useful hint.
"who accept the bible 100% as written"
It's impossible to take the Bible 100% as written, and to do so misses the point.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
