hvt/hit theory and fundamentalism?

Thursday, March 01, 2007 5:26 AM
I just noticed something.
Jim Dobson is a Ph.D and a medical school professor.
Bill Kramer is a Ph.D. and a medical school professor.
Fundamentalists follow Dobson's parenting advice.
Atheists follow secular parenting advice.
Mentzer has no Ph.D and rational people follow Mentzer. Atheists are skeptical of consensus and pseudoscience.
I wonder if fundamentalists lift according to Kramer.
Fundamentalists are irrational followers of authority/concensus. Hmmmm....................
any data of whether followers of HVT or the russian system are fundamentalists?

I agree that fundamentalists typically subborn themselves irrationally to authority figures, but I don't think fundamentalists follow Dobson's parenting advice because he holds a PhD. There are plenty of PhD's that fundamentalists wouldn't listen to.
I think fundamentalists listen to James Dobson because his rhetoric resonnates with their narrow, intolerant worldview.
To that end, there is fundamentalism in every persuit that rises to the level of a group activity, or offers its adherents some implied group "membership" -bodybuilding is no different. To be sure, some of the early Mentzer advice propagated during the late eighties sounded downright cultish.
