| Badassbab said: What we call religious extremists are the most true believers of their religion, they don't try and make it relevant to modern society they practice it as written and most likely the same way as the very first followers. For example Israel, if they really took Judaism to heart and followed it to the tee and the world sat back and watched or turned a blind eye then every single Palestinian would be dead and there would be no such thing as an Israeli Arab for the Old Testament has plenty of events where Jewish prophets and other icons of Judaism carry out Yahweh sanctioned genocide against other non Jewish people. |
Personal conscience and zeal, untempered by anything else, and a sacred text, ends up resulting in attacks in the name of "justice" done by individuals to others.
