Hehe, James good to see an epic, it seems the norm in this debate, wouldn't expect anything less.
I believe that also about our guides/angels/astral friends helping us out, being there for us & if religous people believe they have God on their side & believe they have faith in their God, why need weapons then?, wouldn't God or his minions be looking after you? Or have an ultimate plan for you?
In Islam/christianity & Judaism, probably all the others too, there is the most memorable of the commandments "Thou shalt not kill", so is there an exception to this rule somewhere? a hidden sub-clause? Or is it only a suggestion & not a commandment? Because it seems like it's been interpreted as "thou shalt not kill, except people that don't see your point of view or religous interpretation".
I wonder if Jesus, Muhhamed, Buddha & Confucius practiced sword fighting as their past time, that is, honing their skills to be a better taker of life? Or did they go out amongst the poor weak & diseased to try to help them & try to spread the word of compassion & understanding?
Thanks for your "couple of little thoughts", James, you triggered another line of thought I had on this subject.
Good journeys all
