Re: Bump
No, the absolute last thing fundamentalists want is critical thinking, especially when it is applied to their beliefs.
I totally agree, from personal experience, 40 years ago I was what most would call a fundie, but after years of critical thinking I eventually, about 15 years ago, became an Atheist, much from studying the Bible as a free thinker.
