[QUOTE="FireDragon76, post: 73684955, member: 330042"] These are some good points. There is an Anglo-American tradition of skepticism and freethinking that is far removed from the attitudes of Marx, Lenin, and Nietzsche. IMO, Lenin and Trotsky both came from a brutal society that was brutal even when it was predominantly Christian. Violence was the normal way politics was done. Of course, I am not an atheist but it's important to be clear about the definitions of words and the history of ideas. I think this is where our worldviews do indeed diverge. As a Christian, I believe no one is beyond redemption and every human being has sacred worth, and to quote Sr. Helen Prejean, everyone is worth more than the worst thing they have ever done. I think it's a good thing Dahmer recognized he was a sinner in need of redemption. I don't see that as a bad thing at all. That doesn't make him a good person per se, but then I don't believe anybody is above the capacity to do terrible crimes. [/QUOTE]
