There are actually a great many - the most alarming of all being the born again 'rapturists' the bunch who believe that the end is nigh, that it is their duty to do what they can to bring forward Armageddon (many of George W's born again buddies are members - no joke) and that only 400 000 will ascend to Heaven all others to Hell. Google for US rapture sites and check out the 'left behind' series of Christo/sci Fi novels for a real insight into some of the levers behind US policy. Worryingly the 'Rapture' cult is very similar to the 'return of the 12th Imman' doctrine at the heart of Shiite belief.Seanie said:"Strange how i can't think of one Christian fundamentalist group... are there any? I don't claim to know everything."
There are a few in America, not least those loons who protest at the funerals of soldiers claiming that god is killing soldiers to punish America for being tolerant towards Gays. Name escapes me.
Any corrections welcomed.
