This reminds me somewhat of the man who raised a lion from the bottle and cared for him, but the lion still killed him . There is another story of a man who tried living among lions as friends, until one killed him.

The man, Mr. Austin, earned a master’s degree from Georgetown University, and later began working at the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Lauren Anne Geoghegan was a native of Southern California, who had graduated from Georgetown and was now working in the college’s admissions office.

Both had character as regards commitment, generosity and good will, yet a couple acting out of the liberal fantasy, that of the denial of the fall of man, and his sin nature, and the nature of the world, and what is required because of it. Which means you do not treat lions as if they were Golden Retrievers, or mankind as if they were basically good, or would be if only we did not treat them as if they were prone to sin .

Though we are to seek and can have good relations with many people to varying degrees, who can be kind and generous insomuch as they are ruled from within by God and conscience, yet unlike God, at best man is not to be unconditionally trusted, and in reality can do exceedingly wicked things. Which is not because they were treated as having a sinful nature, as liberals imagine.

Liberalism fosters the idea that evil men are not evil but victims of of those who uphold Biblical values, such as benefits earned by merit, and of showing mercy and grace to others, but which is not a right. Once they have convinced souls to see themselves as victims, liberals then obtain power by presenting themselves as saviors. But the result of their ethos actually bondage or death. And eternal damnation

In short, liberalism is a rebellion against God, and as such it seeks to live in denial of reality and fantasy. In the 60's era liberal fantasy this was much achieved mainly thru drugs, but now indoctrination from early age attains even worse degree of fantasy.

“I don’t buy it. Evil is a make-believe concept we’ve invented to deal with the complexities of fellow humans holding values and beliefs and perspectives different than our own

They should have gone with “Gravity is a make-believe concept” as they jumped off a 500 foot cliff. It would have been quicker (and equally nuts).

I heard about this story. The liberal couple who worked in the Obama administration and wanted to bike around the world thinking evil didn’t exist, and that they wanted to prove it. Someone should have told ISIS that in the area they wanted to travel.

I don’t buy it. Evil is a make-believe concept we’ve invented to deal with the complexities of fellow humans holding values and beliefs and perspectives different than our own …” The male of the two couple advocated there was no set guideline to behavior. He was visited in his last few minutes the resulting conclusion... He choose not to believe there was evil; he only believed in levels of good. Sad his mate held to the same belief system.

By and large, humans are kind. Self-interested sometimes, myopic sometimes, but kind. Generous and wonderful and kind....yeah, dunce, but it's the exceptions to the rule that'll do you in every time......

If evil is a make believe concept Mr Austin then Hitler was as good as Mother Teresa.

I watched the video. The lion did drag him for a bit, but according to the video he had only minor injuries.

I wonder if he were spared and the others were murdered would he have a different opinion? I doubt it.

Reminds me of Tim Snackwell, oops,Treadwell. Living among the Grizzlies was fun, until he and his girlfriend got eaten. Then not so much.

Biking in the ME is fun, until ISIS kills you. Good luck with that.
