Beware the New Jihadists!

From BadTux the Snarky Penguin comes a link to a statement from the Unitary Jihad.

Beware! Unless you people shut up and begin acting like grown-ups with brains enough to understand the difference between political belief and personal faith, the Unitarian Jihad will begin a series of terrorist-like actions. We will take over television studios, kidnap so-called commentators and broadcast calm, well-reasoned discussions of the issues of the day. We will not try for "balance" by hiring fruitcakes; we will try for balance by hiring non-ideologues who have carefully thought through the issues.

Now, here's a group I could get behind. Sure, they're a terrorist-like group, but they're my kind of terrorist-like group. Although I think the only people they're likely to inspire terror in are the folk that believe that winning a debate is defined by out-screaming your opponent; or how big a group of people you can get to believe your lies.

Just call me Brother Crushing Flail of Reasonableness.
