> I didn't argue that point 'tooth and nail.' Not just you but other people in here as well."
Gilberto, you are a assuming there is a single position being argued here in opposition to your own. That's not the case. We all have different perspectives. I tend to take each point by itself, whether it comes from you or anyone else. That drives some folks crazy, including yourself I suspect. > I *am* arguing that we can't "I don't believe wholesale, indiscriminate, total genocide of an entire ethnic group is a just matter of taste." But some kinds of genocide are okay because they aren't as total, indiscrimate or wholesale? > No, I'm not. I understand all the possible explanations just as I can > understand the possible explanations for eliminating the Canaanites. Then you should just give them." I'm not that interested in them. I have no real interest in judging the people by the past based on my present day standards. I am only intereted in examining the remedies which are needed for today's afflications. "You accused both of genocide." By today's standards both incidents would constitute genocide. But as I indicated, I don't judge Muhammad by today's standards, however much you might think I should. warmest, Susan The information contained in this e-mail and any attachments thereto ("e-mail") is sent by the Johnson County Community College ("JCCC") and is intended to be confidential and for the use of only the individual or entity named above.
