Everyone seems to be able to identify an extremist enemy. Where as, few are able to recognize this enemy within their own groups.

Group extremism involves loyalty to tribe, religion, race, national origin, extreme liberal chaos, extreme oppressive totalitarianism, etc. It is the false sense of devotion to a heritage with in a group, that tends to corrupt one to the extreme.

The alternative is based in applying principle to events in the world of the living, which are circumstancial.
