I'm always perplexed when it comes to American legislation.
As a Christian, I could never support the morally wrong laws passed. But, to be consistent, I know that the freedoms that allowed Christians to build Christian monuments and post 10 commandments or what not are equally extended towards those who aren't Christian. The framework has been the same since the beginning. What has changed are men's hearts. It's like the satanist monument news article the other day. I feel like if we are going to be consistent in allowing religious expression, then well, they should be allowed to put it up. Both or neither I suppose.
Of course, that's why the most effective change will never come through policy making, though we support good legislation, but the widespread changing of heart's by God's manifold grace. We cannot make them worship The Lord in out governmentsl policies, only point them to Him, and oppose what we know is wrong, even if only on religious grounds. (Which are grounds enough, no other reasons are required for something be wrong that when God says so, but there are often extra reasons such as higher HIV or depression rates and children who face problems in broken homes.) |

It does appear you have had a much more formal and strict studying approach to the the matters.
I will admit that causation is hard or near impossible to determine, undoubtedly, with the variables of a human and his experiences. Throw in spiritual battles and it gets all the more muddled.
Far as hasty generalization, well, not with a formal understanding, I just think that that means using too few examples to make a big statement or generalization about many. Now, here is what I do still maintain.
We can logically see that Darwinism when consistently followed to its ends, leads to racism, eugenics, and violence.
We see this being consistent in a large number of eugenicists, dictators, and tyrants.
Does that mean that their crimes were necessarily caused by this shared belief? No. But I do find it alarming and peculiar when all these people share a common view? Could it be a major factor into causation? Maybe, we of course cannot know for sure, but is it really that wrong to posit an educated guess that this common denominator plays a major role in their actions? I personally think not, but I could be wrong. |
