Of course. That's why you're one of the good ones. Most of them are just brainwashed, though. The ones i've met, anyway.
Why is it I usually only meet the insane ones? People are trying to say that they're not all insane, yet 90% of the ones i've met are deeply insane. How can this be? Am I some sort of fundamentalist magnet?

I understand this. I know it's not some devious plan, it just seems like the natural thing to do. I still believe that it's very, very bad, though. It's kind of the same principle as raising your kids to hate blacks, or to believe that the moon is made of cheese. It may seems like the thing to do at the time, but it still negatively affects the person's rationality.
