@rezaaslan@SamHarrisOrg an example of "evil" might be imprisonment for free speech, which you openly advocate. -
@goosegill@rezaaslan@SamHarrisOrg an example of neoconservative-zionism evil is the war crime in gaza -
@goosegill@rezaaslan@SamHarrisOrg or the belief in pre emptive murder, torture .. (somewhat freespeech limiting) -
@xtc_uk@rezaaslan@SamHarrisOrg you have agreement there, except in extreme circumstances. Whereas you'd imprison someone for speech... -
@goosegill@rezaaslan@SamHarrisOrg and christ-like harris would advocate pre-emptive murder for those he disagree with -
@xtc_uk@rezaaslan@SamHarrisOrg no, that's what your book demands. Harris advocates self defense against madmen. -
@goosegill@rezaaslan@SamHarrisOrg islam quite clear : war is only in defence, aggressive wars not allowed. (unlike usa manifest destiny) - 30 more replies
