To say that someone is responsible for an action which he neither advocates nor participates in, is rediculous. There are actions being taken all over the world. How can anyone take actions to stop all of them? This is obvious. But you protest: "I mean local actions"? Which of these? And if I don't watch the news am I not responsible for stopping the actions reported there? This gets rediculous very quickly. Then there is the question of the actions that redeem one. Does writing your Congressman fulfill your obligation or must one run for office, etc? Howard Davis >> I was going to pass this by as well but since you commented on it I would like to add that your thoughts follow mine on the issue. Additionally are you obligated to stop people from killing another when your life could be lost in the exchange? Where does one draw the line? I don't advocate hate as something that should be thought or embraced, neither do I think it is healthy to be racist or anti-homosexual, BUT if you wish to think that way it is your right and I will defend it. I a not part of the problem by supporting your right to do so, the people who try and tell you how to think and behave are the ones who are part of the problem, taking away our individuality and freedom.
