We are not dealing with people who want to be reasonable or care to allow a person to explain a position. It is shocking that Neocon has the audacity to tell me what I mean and insist he knows what I mean and that I do not.

No, just because not all who are "brainwashed" do not become evil does not mean that all evil does not ultimately derive from the "brainwashing". You are quite wrong.

I have noticed young children all my life, and most are full of love and goodness, then something happens to some of them, it is called
being brainwashed religiously and nationalistically and some of them actually become fanatical and evil. So sad it is so sad that all evil
spurts from allegiance to God and State!


The last sentence is a crock. There is no necessity to use "all".......it is meant to over-generalize and demonize God and State. Leaving it out, it is valid enough within the context and he is welcome to his opinion and I doubt would have gotten any flack.
