threatening people w/ bodily harm or to burn down structures because of one's personal belief goes beyond the pale.

It's really a big disappointment to me, in that I respected orthodoxy a little more than the usual radical side of various religions, in that I thought they were perhaps more educated than the general population, so thus, their opinions, their statements carried a little more weight. That is, more prepared to take on life's challenges. I know that one person's extreme viewpoints shouldn't tip the pot too much , but such views I think aren't made in a vacuum.

Burn down everything? Reminds of what some other thuggish groups are known to think.

I guess this person's viewpoint makes it abundantly clear now that not everyone has a full and abundant share of brains when the good folks upstairs passed them all out. NO, people such as this are not as smart, as graceful, as educated, as open-minded, etc. to allow others in this great country of ours to have their different opinions, and instead, threatened to burn down something, such as a school, etc. Why don't you go out and shoot the school's elders, or the other parents, etc. while you're at it?
