3263, the problem with the holy sense Posted by johnny_domino, Mon Nov-03-03 09:05 AM
is that, even in that sense, it's been used to justify some of the worst atrocities (the crusades, current middle east situation, 'manifest destiny', wasn't the story of Ham used to justify slavery?). You can do awful things in the name of God, just as easily as you can say you're doing them for your country. How do you differentiate between what is truly moral, in a holy sense, and what is not? And this may seem off-topic, but what are your feelings on abortion and homosexuality?
