    The idea need not necessarily be a bad one for a fanatic to be unreasoning about following it.
    Concrete, Abstract, or Squoingy?

      I am not sure about that.

      Gandhi does not come across as a fanatic. Neither were the Buddha, Lao Tzu, and Confucius.

      Darwin wasn't a fanatic, and neither was his "bulldog" Huxley.

        Gandhi was most definitely a fanatic

        I don't know about Darwin, but Boltzmann was (as was Einstein)

        I don't know enough about many of the chinese you mentioned.. but I bet Buddha wa sa fanatic
