Fanaticism

[phk]

Can anybody come up with a logical explanation of why the occurence stated below occurs?

A person who is against abortion and is NOT religous is less likey than a person who is against abortion and IS religous to bomb an abortion clinic.

[A18]

Religious people are more sensible, of course.

[Erc]

Because people who are religious and against abortion tend to be more against abortion than those are aren't relgious and against abortion.

[Jake]

Hah, nothing wrong with bombing it as long as you don't hurt anyone

Because people who are religious and against abortion tend to be more against abortion than those are aren't relgious and against abortion.

There are some radically pro-life atheists in company.

Given that you have a picture of Marx, Lenin, and Mao in your signature, and given the sheer magnitude of anti-Islam threads you've made, I find it amusing that you're criticizing fanaticism.

[opebo]

Because religious are more dangerous, marx, in fact they are the main problem in the world today.

I don't limit myself, philip.  The Romans would not have thought so.

Because belief in religion puts limitations on behavior.  While a religious person may believe abortion to be wrong, he/she will most likely also believe it to be wrong to bomb an abortion clinic, because of the potential for killings that come from the bombings, and such a person is more likely to resort to non-violent means to protest abortion.

Non-religious people are by definition more self-centered and less apt to accept limitations on what they are able to do to give effect to strongly held beliefs.  Therefore, they are more likely to believe that violence is an acceptable method to use against something that they strongly oppose.

Of course, it depends what religion a person subscribes to.  If it's fundamentalist islam, then nothing I wrote above applies.  I'm assuming it's Christianity.
