The common dogma of fundamentalists is fear of modern knowledge, inability to cope with the fast change in a scientific/technological society, and the real breakdown in apparent moral order in recent years.  That is why hate is the major fuel, fear is the cement of the movement, and superstitious ignorance is the best defense against the dangerous new knowledge.  When you bring up arguments that cast serious doubts on their cherished beliefs you are not simply making a rhetorical point, you are threatening their whole Universe and their immortality.  That provokes anger and quite frequently violence.  Unfortunately, you cannot reason with them.  Their numbers will decline only when society stabilizes, and adapts to modernity. ~ G Gaia
