Re: friends with someone who wants everyone of an entire religion obliterated? =/ - January 20th 2009, 12:11 AM

Well, for one, you met him on the internet. Seeing as how I also meet lots of people on the internet I won't say the relationship is not legitimate.

But consider this, Hitler did not only want Jews to be killed. Amongst those he wanted killed were homosexuals, the disabled, blacks, gypsies, and those who disagreed with him politically. Chances are you fit into that group in some way or another (like disagreeing with him). That being the case, I personally wouldn't want to talk to someone who (in their free time) puts "I love Hitler" on Hitler-worship sites. But if you have no problem being the friend (and therefore potential emotional support base) for an anti-semitic hateful most-notorious-murderer worshiper then by all means. I would say be nice to him, but only to the extent that you don't support what he believes. Tell him you disagree and possibly inquire into him. Sometimes the cover of a book is misleading.


I swear never to be silent whenever wherever human beings are enduring suffering and humiliation. We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must — at that moment — become the center of the universe.
