Rev. Rachel Smith, whose blog "God Not Guns" is a project of the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, calls it gundamentalism.Coming from someone who portrays herself as centered on "religion," it seems like we have a bit of projection going on.
"America’s gun culture is marked by zeal closely akin to that of religious fundamentalism. The gun-rights movement is built upon a system of belief that is both absolutist and aggressive. It has its sacred text, its creed, its icon and its ideology."
Gundamentalists. I like that, Rachel. You're quite the pundamentalist!
Mind if I adopt it, even if I flaunt the term with pride rather than resent it as a pejorative?
