Default Rhetorical Question - 04-18-2003, 02:08 PM

If someone knocked on your door and asked you if you wanted to join their cause in ridding the "evil" in your city/town (drug dealers, gangsters, murderers, rapists, etc.) under the guidance of God, would you join them?

Which God? Odin? And how would the evil be vanquished? With Miller Light catfight ads? If i was going to make an educated response (which i hope to this point i havent), then i need to know these things.... oOo:

The Spanish Inquisition was under the "guidance of God". Burning witches was under the "guidance of God".

That is possibly the scariest phrase I have ever heard the more I think about it.

If you speak of vigilant justice under a "Christian God" with extreme prejudice then no.

I basically asked myself this question after I watched Boondock Saints. Is vigilantism ok if the intentions are good?

I would be all for ridding the streets of evil, but if they mentioned god i would have to kill them too, as i think the people who go knocking at doors spreading the word of god, are evil too. well maybe not evil, but deserving of a severe kicking in.

Uh, no. Drug dealers are providing a service, gangsters are my friends and
the murderers/rapists can be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. No need to
bring God into this. Besides, we'll never have a Utopian society so forget it...
