>No one is free to hate
anyone and extreme acts of violence are increasing from the internet.<
While I understand your feelings I think you need to separate thought from action. If people hate other people, but do not act on that hatred, it is not a good thing, but it is a situation free people must tolerate. You cannot police people's thoughts and have a very good society. Extreme acts of violence, ANY acts of violence are a different matter.

Hi Nancy, good to hear from you.
Does your comment mean that the hate of Hitler and Manson was bad but the hate of Zionism is good?

It sounds like your morality in anchored in the talmudic principle of:
What is good for the Jews is good, and what is bad for the Jews is bad.
You may consider this legitimate moral reasoning , but I don't think most of mankind would agree.

Your other comments seem to indicate that you have a far deeper emotional attachment to modern Judaism and Israel than to Christianity and Christ. You seem to get very upset when the atrocities against the Palestinian Christians and the Palestinian moslems. Since you claim you are a Christian, shouldn't you be somewhat concerned about your Christian brothers and sister in Palestine as well as the Moslems? Do you consider the Palestinians as human and worthy of human dignity despite their religion?
I hope you could share your feelings on these subjects.

Regards

Emile
