I was amused by Mark D'Souza's statement about there being "no christian 
fundamentalist" in America!
There are fundamentalists and rational folks in every religion as well as 
secular people on every continent of the world!
 
There are lots of Christian fundamentalists in the US and they do have 
opposition to all other religions and faiths! 
There is not just conflict between Catholics and Protestants, but there is 
opposition to the Jewish, Hindu and Islamic faiths!
And of course, acts of vandalism have occurred against Synagogues, Temples, 
Churches and Mosques!
We are definitely not living in a perfect world!
