“A fanatic is dogmatic. He insists that his theories, his ideology, his solutions are the correct ones. A fanatic is obscurantist. He ignores (or cannot perceive) arguments, facts, or consequences that refute his solutions. Finally, a fanatic is authoritarian. When he has power he tries to impose his answers on others. Dogmatism, obscurantism and authoritarianism are all out of keeping with the human condition of fallibility. And when people become fanatics, when they try to become God, they frequently make life a hell for other people.”
