I can't claim to know their motivation, and neither can you! Has anybody asked
them? Would you believe their answer? I can guarantee you that the mainstream
groups (CFV, FoF) won't say, "Oh, it's simple! We hate you!"
To be honest, I didn't really intend to get dragged into this discussion. I
don't know enough about either side to debate coherently. The "HATE" keyword
just sort of pushed my button.
Out of curiosity, why isn't religion a valid motivation?
I'm outa here...
