If you came upon Abraham of Ur just about to slay his son, would you talk him out of it?
If you intruded upon Deanna Laney just before she murdered her sons by stoning, what would you do?
From a Judeo-Xn-Muslim perspective, how can one claim that only one of these people acted rightly? For that matter, how can an unbeliever morally differentiate between them, if at all?
If we can all agree that the free excercise clause does not extend to murderous acts of filicide, what should we do with people like Abraham and Deanna?
