[QUOTE="dgiharris, post: 65786060, member: 322579"] If you've look at history, you will see that every society or culture on this planet has always had some witch to burn, that is, there has always been "something" evil to hate and crusade against. I was literally thinking of the Salem Witch Trials. Looking back on that, its amazing to see how the hatred spawned so many illogical and irrational arguments for why so-and-so was a witch, how to prove they were a witch, and how even when you were wrong in burning the innocent you could somehow justify your actions (i.e no matter what they were never wrong doing what they did..) Thinking about various cultures over the centuries, it occurred to me that there has always been some group of people who have always been the evil others. This got me to thinking, is it possible for their to be a culture or society or religion without some evil other group to hate? [/QUOTE]
