Jay Wrote:Yes. But I don't know if I should elaborate it for the sake of my own safety. But let just we've been fed and nurtured to despise certain things since we were little kids. To make it worse, it doesn't stop even after you have become adult. You will be reminded to hate these things again and again in almost every week, every year till the day you die.Jay, I for one desperately want to understand what is going on. I am pleased you felt able to question. Thinking is a commodity not readily encouraged these days.
In my experience, most people just nodded their heads when they being taught on what to hate and what to despise. Whilst others nodded their heads, I spent my time forming a WTF expression on my face towards the preacher. I asked myself, "What ever happened to common sense? All these do not make sense at all."
If you had to listen to stuff like this all your life it would no doubt be damaging. What I don't know is whether this is typical rhetoric, how the video has been edited to present a Christian view of extreme Islamism or to what degree the translations are accurate. I would welcome discussion on this with someone who has more understanding than I have.
