You, of course realize, what you are doing is repeating hateful Islamaphobe talking points. However saying it does not make it so. Do you think pounding out the same tired talking points over and over again will cause it to be?

I admit, it is possible some ignorant people do "in the name of XXX" as they do for other causes, and have done so with or wthout religion. Depravity knows no color lines or borders, it infects all societies. We could go on and on trading what XXX does and what ZZZ does...it does get tedious.  

I didn´t read it either. I don´t want that garbage in my mind. Howevever, there is such a thing as good taste, self censorship, rather than external censorship. We (the human race) could use with a bit more self censorship & introspection as to what our values are.

There is much that is censored and there is no complaint about it. Think about it seriously, do you really thing absolutly no censorship is a good idea? 

It´s not about prohibition of the games and violent videos. It´s rather about the social acceptability of them. It´s about the fact that they have not only become socialy acceptable, but are actually preferred to other types of entertainments. What person prefers to see hideous violence that dehumanized the practicioners, what does it say about a society? 

You show your absolute contempt here, and during Ramadan too. You really don´t get it do you? I wonder just who is the barbarian here?

Thank you tomac

I think you would like Moondog´s music

& you too Tunci

and you too, and everyone who celebrates Ramadan....

Actually, she is right. Of course if you put Norwiegan Terrorist in Google, you are bound to get results with terrorist in the header.

However if you look at the headlines you will see it´s called the shooter, the bomber....not terrorist. They are called hate groups...not terrorists. 

Elisabeth, if it were so easy to know evil. All of us have evil in us, some more, some less. I think it develops one way or another during our lives. We choose with our tiny "free will" which way to go, and in doing so, we lend strength to different parts of our selves. 

In thinking of things as pure evil, we miss the insidious nature of evil. There are, of course, psychopathic personalities, which in most opinions are pretty evil, certainly, they are not compassionate people. It´s all about themselves and what they desire. 

Hitler was a very sick man, He was reputed to have syphllis, parkinsons, aspergers, schitzophrenia, amphetime addict and a whole litany of health and personality problems, but I don´t think he was actually a psychopath. He is not responsible for all that is attributed to him, rather it was a collective of social & economic issues that were the cause of all those horrors. It never is just one person or cause, it´s always like several streams running into a river and the matter of opportunity. 

I think all the hideous games of murder and mayhem that are taken so lightly pattern our minds to be more accepting of things. In a personality that is more susceptible, (like they encourage and promote them to do awful things. They feel they have some acceptance, they are doing what others would have liked to do.

When and if something is seen as so unacceptable as to be unthinkable, if they are considered "uncool" and they would be totally socially ostracized, there is less chance they will act on the impulses. 

Good Lord, what a nerve!!! I don´t know what the word is for such a thing. It sure is provocative incitement, and certainly an apology is in order. I´m surprised other world leaders have not commented, IMHO they should. 

Well how about.....
