"And no person can ever be true to any faith that believes in the dignity of all human life if they do not act out of concern for those whose dignity is assailed because of their faith.""
What if I were to offer the idea that McCain can not offer this to anyone if it goes against their belief to do so?
If there is to be TRUE religious freedom here or abroad, (and I truly believe McCain should begin with himself first) then we need to "allow" that, even though the beliefs of others conflict with our own.
We can not control others. We can not expect that everyone will feel the same way morally as we do. But, if we are going to be true to ourselves AND religious freedom, we need to "allow" that there are some who will kill in the name of religion because their desire and their belief are a vibrational match and that the same is true for their victims as co creators in the experience.
