Come on. Those folks knew the risks.

But to criticize them, to suggest that they did anything wrong in breaking these laws of man which utterly contradict the God-given liberty every human being is endowed with, is ridiculous.

I smell a different sort of bias here.

The 'proselytizing' charge is the clue...

[Long Cut]

I didn't say they did WRONG, and as far as I can tell, neither did AR.

I DID say, in as nice as way as possible, that they were perhaps naieve in the extreme, and foolhardy. That's not the same thing.

I don't want to speak for AR, as he's capable of that himself, but what I got from his posts was that, if they WERE doing as you say, then they shouldn't have cried about it later.

Given that they DID, it seems to me that their simple goodheartedness overcame common sense. You have to admit, that's not uncommon with such people.
