With rare exception (and please, I have no interest in hearing from those of you who can’t wait to tell me, “I was once one of them and I got out!”), there is no reaching these people. Quarantine them and breed this cognitive and ethical deficit out of the genome. It’s the only way to ensure human survival.

[...]

If there is any hope at all for our survival (and it’s probably already too late), it lies in nullifying their influence. We need mandatory testing of intelligence, sanity and developmental level as a prerequisite for reproduction, or at the very least, for voting. The Western Europeans seem to be able to handle representative democracy; we’ve never really developed the knack. We need to run this place as a republic for a while (which I understand was the preference of some of the founders), in which power is wielded by an elite on behalf of the majority of the populace – except that in my version, the elite would be comprised not of members of a landed aristocracy, but of people with a few neurons to rub together. Naturally, this will never be done. This is the reason we’re screwed.

So, yes, I advocate the quarantining of fundamentalists. I make absolutely no apology for it.
