18. it kind of goes together with my study of constitutional law.
Yes it does, particularly in terms of the structure, as the founders attempted to embed sub-systems of a sort to prevent a single group gaining enough power to subvert it and hijack the government. What we are seeing is defiantly a test as to the ability of the document to withstand such assaults.

A study in psychology is also helpful in understanding the fundies as the exhibit many psychological defects.

"In other words, if they are not careful, people will wake up, and the money will dry up."

I agree with that, they are at a point where on the one hand they are starting to feel secure and therefore are more willing to talk about what their true beliefs are. Especially among some of the lower level players. However, some of the top players are keeping on top of it, so it will be interesting to see how it works out.

This is one of the things I like about Fred Phelps and why people should listen to him. He is either too honest, or to ignorant to understand the game, but he does express what these peoples true agenda is. If you are unfamiliar with Fred you can visit his site at:
