Today I received an email from one of my rightwing, religious fundamentalist college students telling me that God loves me, that Scripture is the Truth and way, that God wants me to love him and that I need not be frightened by things like "rat-brained robots" because I have a soul and God has saved my soul. I believe this email represents all that is wrong with religious fundamentalism and is indicative of a fundamental failure to love the neighbor. Why?
