Another interesting quote

Upon reading the remarks of a blog rallying against our attempts at setting up an American theocracy, a commentor wrote to show his appreciation for the blog entry and left this quote:

As a psychiatrist once remarked after dealing with a few fundamentlists while visiting Jerusalem, "They need t-shirts that should state the truth - 'God told me to hate you.'"

I couldn't help but smirk that such a t-shirt would be very helpful in getting to the root causes of such hatred. But then, I wonder if such a t-shirt slogan is a justification or an excuse for intolerance and hatred?
