In the past week, I've had two examples of extremists brought to my attention. First there was Pastor Charles Worley fellow whose sermon that would prove lethal to homosexuals if put into practice went viral, along with a 1978 audio clip of him wishing for the good old lynching days. On the flip side, you have tweets from these gay marriage supporters telling their opponents that they should kill themselves.

My reaction to these people who are polar opposites in belief but identical in their foul, corrupt, withered souls is simple: I propose a death match between them. Because it's only fair that if you want other people to die for their beliefs, you should be willing to die for yours. Right?

I also propose the following judges. On the religious side we'll have these fellows, though they may be late to the competition due to having to avoid certain neighborhoods while wearing their hoodies:




And for the pro-gay marriage side, this fellow, if someone will fetch him some high intensity suntan lotion and a beer, with foam:



The judges' decisions will be final. So will God's and history's, I imagine.

Great idea. Maybe we could do this for all extremists in all things? Then there would be a lot of mellow and reasonable people left. We would still have opinions and differences, but we would be willing to live and let live.
