I think it's sad that children that age can even comprehend that killing someone is ok. When I was that age......the 10 commandments was what we all lived by in our lives....even if we weren't Christian or Jewish. We had values that were just known ways to live by & knew right from wrong because our parents taught us & society also believed it then.
Now????? Where are the values? Where are the parents???? Where is societies norms???? Why don't many parents feel it's their job to teach values to their children.....oh yes, they will grow up & make up their own minds what is right & wrong...just the same as when we grew up without religion....when we grow up....we will decide what we want to choose to believe or not......so if we choose to believe that killing isn't wrong....does that make it right?
I think it is sad, but as society is loosing it's ability to express it's values & as we keep our values quiet because we don't want to offend anyone that thinks differently......this is what comes of our tolerance.....of course, this is my opinion....but it seems that my opinion is fairly backed up by what is going on in society.
I heard that there are people who are forcing cities with public 10 commandments being displayed to remove them.....by telling the governments that they have to put up hate displays if they allow the 10 commandments because of civil rights or they have to remove everything....where is this world coming to?....we see what it's coming to when 8 year olds plot to kill their teachers without any feelings that it is wrong. We want everyone to be free to think for themselves & yet we are appalled when things like this happen.
There are a few things I am very opinionated on....this is one of them.
