Given some of the nonsense I've seen posted in various religious debates both here and on other forums I don't know why anyone would bother given that there appears to be plenty of that sort of nonsense to go around.
Charismatic, I'd suggest leaving this thread ASAP. You're going to be pummeled and put into the same category as them. 
Anyone who starts pummelling better watch out. If you want to argue on the facts that's fine though.
At the risk inherent in arguing with a mod on topics such as this:
Charismatic is conservative and believes it's morally wrong to be gay. The majority of Internet users I've seen are for some reason liberal-leaning. This whole topic is making fun of Fundamentalist Christians, a group which has right-leaning views. If you want to stop people from getting pummeled, you might as well close this topic before it turns into a political debate.
Also, I have no problem making fun of ignorant people, it's one of the greatest sources of comedy in existence, but making fun of someone's beliefs, what they choose to believe in and embrace, is something I personally do not do. For example, your quote from the page (I'm on thin ice here, aren't I) was someone's heartfelt belief. For example, I feel that people who think they can go ahead and talk about with confidence something they do not in anyway understand can be made fun of. I respect people's beliefs, however, because just because there is no evidence something is true does not mean it is not. If someone's belief gives meaning to their life, and acts as a spiritual compass, then I believe they should have it. In my (admittedly uninformed) mind, there are two kinds of philosophy, the kind that has been largely been replaced by modern science, and the kind which simply teaches and gives meaning to life. It is this type of philosophy that is so close to religion. As long as someone's beliefs do not lead them to hurt others, and do not drive them to hatred of other groups, they can believe.
