Changing minds to say killing's not only okay but divine.
I read a post in an earlier thread that pointed out that there isn't really a "kill or be killed" truism. It was a generality statement and I agree that's true for the most part.

When people get the idea that their cause is Justified by "THE WORD OF GOD!" or for the truth of putting down a contrary "IDEA" or "MINDSET," the blood will always flow.

What's sad is that most individuals will not come up with this sort of crap on their own. As far as I know, there is always some socio/psychopath behind it or someone who is just fucking greedy for power or money to the point that they can be classified as a psychopath.

Here in America and across the world, we have groups of individuals who want what they want and they want it now. Consequences be damned. I personally blame this on groups that demand "FAITH" rather than "REASON." And unfortunately as long as rampant ignorance outnumbers those with the capability to think for themselves, this may continue to be the case.

Hence, the reluctance for some societies to not allow education for women and our own culture that seems determined to "dumb down America."

God help us all.
