“God will tell me, and I will tell you. All religious belief flows from that sentiment. Beware of it, for it has been used to manipulate countless people and instills unfounded assumptions of the unknowable in each of us, causing us to presuppose the very nature of our own experiences.” -DarkMatter2525(?)
**update: Sorry about the formatting problem – putting a you tube video inside blockquotes equals borked video. Should work now.**

I recently read The Authoritarians by Bob Altemeyer. It can be downloaded in PDF form, free. Scientific analysis of authoritarian personality and that of fundamentalists. Easy to read for those who are busy.
