Yes, you have a lingual problem. It should be perfectly obvious that Daniel
did not mean that he likes to go around forcing people to recant their
religious beliefs at the point of a gun. What he meant by "militant" is no
different from the way it is standardly used: it means you like to pick a
fight. The kind of fights some atheists like to pick are
verbal/intellectual fights, not physical ones.

Sure, Erik.
BTW, if you're militantly anti-Extropian, you don't belong on this
particular email list. It's intended for Extropians and fellow travellers.
You're completely free to criticize extropian thinking elsewhere, such as
the Transhuman list, but it's not the function of *this* list.
