Default Re: Catholics vs. Hitler

I'm still puzzled by BCPVPs inability to perceive a group as a viable entity.

As others have pointed out, the actions of a group are often different then the actions of any individual.

If the KKK develops a philosophy, meets as a group to create a strategy and all the people work together to enact that strategy.... that "organization" is acting. Certainly individuals are acting withing that organization. But the organization is ALSO working.

The KKK can enact a campaign of terror. Not simply the members, but the group as a whole is greater and different then the sole actions of individuals. It is completely appropriate to talk about and be critical of the the actions of the organization.
