maybe I am just seeing the world from a different perspective than other christians.

I see human beings as human beings, creations of God that are loved no matter what their religion or culture. I think people in this thread are only seeing the world in reguards to religious labels. It doesnt really matter to me if someone is a muslim or an atheist. I will talk to them with basic respect that I do all people. no innoecent man or woman deserves to get their head cut off or shot.

i tend to think that you, I and a few others in this thread are seeing the bigger picture while others are not.

You're seeing things from a worldly perspective. And that's the problem.

1. "how do people know that Steve and Olaf were even religious men at all ? i dont get it. this thread is a mass mess"

2. "maybe I am just seeing the world from a different perspective than other christians."

3. "I see human beings as human beings, creations of God that are loved no matter what their religion or culture.
...... It doesnt really matter to me if someone is a muslim or an atheist, I will talk to them with basic respect that I do all people.".......

1. Agree. We don't know if they were/are religious, nor does it matter (IMHO). What they did was a normal, healthy reaction to an insane situation - preserving ones own life is a primary mission of life. Only an exception would have done otherwise.

2. I don't think you are seeing this differently from the vast majority of Christians. I don't think the more extreme and unreasonable posts here are representative..

3. Agree with you again. Everyone deserves respect unless they demonstrate otherwise. Unfortunately some use religion to feel superior to others and that's as dangerous as it is wrong.

BTW, nice to see someone with his head screwed on right...
