I keep running into this guy who is a complete pacifist, which is almost what I considered myself until hearing this guy.
He is one of the extreme legalistic religous believers who "says" he is against any type of physical defense. He went as far as saying he would stand by and watch his wife and children get raped and murdered before he would take another life. Now, I would like to write this off as brovado, but in today's society of women stoning their children to death because of warped religous beliefs, that may be the truth he is spouting.
This got me thinking, What makes a person feel this way? Fear? Anger? What do you say to someone like this? I mean, I feel for his wife and kids if ever attacked. I know most would say this then end up defending themselves anyway, but there are those who wouldn't. How could someone live with themselves believing this way?
