I suppose one would try to “save her soul” and or look down on her as “going to hell” and the other would try to kill her for crimes against their religion.
Honestly, the only thing this was a test of is my perception of what others might do according to the “model” I have build in my head of who and what they are. Nothing more... Although I am pretty confident that my “model” of both is going to be fairly accurate on a consistent basis.
In your mind are Christians bad or is it fundamentalist Christians that are bad? Maybe its just the radical ones that are bad?
In your mind, does radical equate to bad? If so, why?
Are all radicals bad? political, ideological, religious, etc? or only some of them?
...Just curious.
Hard to answer. I see similarities. Take for instance abortion protesters. We all agree they have a right to protest. Abortion is wrong, and if it were right, people would still have the right to protest. Some go beyond and kill the abortion doctors. In a legal sense, they are guilty of murder and the state has no choice but to prosecute.
As citizens, we have an obligation to obey laws. But I am curious as to what is going to happen in the jury room when the defense raises a “defense of life” defense. Muslims would probably see little wrong with shooting an abortion doctor.
Christians are not in favor of murder, but down there at the radical level, we have already seen a few make the jump. Right now, I think you can count these people on the fingers of one hand. Like Eric Rudolf, or that guy in Kansas. What happens if more become willing to cross that line between “Caesar’s laws” and what they view as God’s laws?
And what happens if those people ever link up with the fundamentalist type Muslims? Both groups spring from Judaism. Both believe in the 10 Commandments. Both view society as evil. Both believe in Heaven. There’s a lot of common ground. If one Christian in ten thousand make that
jump, you’re looking at what, like 25,000 people?
parsy, who can see this becoming a possibility down the road
