And in religious terms you can define anything. The definition of a fetus
as a person is a religious definition. Not all people share, or can be
realistically expected to share, that religion or any single religion. It
is not going to happen. Period. End of story. Trying to force other people
to practice your religion, whatever it is, inevitably leads to conflict.
As for negative attitudes about whites in South Africa, you brought it on
yourselves. I have no sympathy.
==========================================================================
There are 2 famous Psychology experiments that come to mind
The first is where 5 people are told to judge the lenghth of the number of
lines. the one line is clearly shorter than the others but the first 4
people giving the lenghths are plants and say that the shortest lie is the
longest.
The majority of subjects complied to the opinion of the majority...Today the
TV and those who contol it do the same.
The second is the case where an actor is hired to apperar as if he is
receibving an electric shock. A subject is told that the person (actor ) is
hired to test their reaction to pain . The xperimenter tells the subject to
start giving electric shocks. It was guessed that less than .1% of people
would give a lethal shock. In practice about 75% did under the
compulsion(verbal only) of the experimenter.
The utilitarian mind set easily falls into the handing over the definition
of utility not even to themselves but to the media.
