hello, entheogenic-gnosis

i do think that sometimes violence is necessary, yes, and i do think you can sometimes put out fire with fire, and sometimes its the only way, like burning down the surrounding area of a bush fire to contain it.

Europe would be a far worse place if the allies had not gone to war against the Nazis, this is one case where fire put out fire, even though it was at a high cost, sometimes i think that there are no other options.

i think the main reason that ISIS are attacking and recruiting is due to there specific branch of islam and not to do with our foreign policy, our actions dont help but they are not primary. it doesnt require anything other than their religeous belief to recruit and carry out the attrocities they current are.

if you were a Yazidi man in your home with your family, and the door was kicked in by ISIS who proceeded to take your wife and young daughter to become sex slaves, would simply try to reason with them and never resort to violence?

i think in this situation it would be horrific to not try everything in your power to save your wife and child from enslavement, torture and rape and this would mean resorting to violence as a last resort.

Do you think ISIS and the west are equally evil?
