You might be right, Geo. But I do go about it differently because I do not get sucked into their emotional pool. You might think that because I used the word "stupid" to describe them, but I assure you that is not the case. I don't even read their posts 95% of the time. Carl banned the word I wanted to use that aptly describes them "lacking in knowledge or training, unlearned". I guess that really hits a nerve with him.
Where I came from if you see someone stealing someone's livelihood, attacking crippled poeple, the blind, greiving widows, and you don't say something about it, you have commited a grievous sin. John Lennon wrote the song "Instant Karma" but that isn't really the case. It's not necessarily "instant" but it is eternal. It all goes back to Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden. They put reason, rational thinking (which is only comparitive knowledge) ahead of direct perception. Once a person is dead, that part dies with them but their soul is eternal. People talk about greater than your worst nightmare, but words can't possibly describe it.
