I am this way with my faith. I believe the commandments God has given me are for everyone to follow not just followers of my faith. They are his guidelines to the world, not just my religion. That being said. I would never physically harm someone or attack them because they don't follow my tenets, especially if they don't know what they are. I would believe they are doing something wrong however in a spirit of reasonable discussion I would explain this to them and how I believe they should act, and then allow them to make their choice. I'm not the one who will determine if a penalty should or should not be given much less dispense one as these men did. <div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1030','Frank'); return false;">Reply</a> | <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1030','Frank','@James To answer your question, remember that for the most part people within the judeochristian and even islamic traditions believe in absolute truths meaning they believe their truths to be the absolute truths and therefor applicable to all whether they believe or not.
