New post up at the Slacktiverse: Who decides what the fundamentals are?

Basically what the title says.  I have a new post up at the Slacktiverse.  It is called, "Who decides what the fundamentals are?" and it's about religion.

Go there and read it if you're interested.

It was in response to someone making the argument (Not in these words):
Fundamentalists are people who follow the fundamentals. 
If the people who follow the fundamentals are the bad ones, the fundamentals must be bad.
If the the fundamentals of the religion are bad, the whole religion must be bad.
It was in order to argue that being a Christian is anti LGBT rights no matter how good of a person you are, and the most unsound part of the argument is, of course: Fundamentalists are people who follow the fundamentals.

The fundamentals according to who?

But, like I said, if you're interested read the post.

      You seem to know an awful lot about this Christopher Robin fellow. Are you one of those Poohvians?

      And I've yet to see a comment from you that you needed to apologize for. I like your comments.
