Accusations of Ignorance When a new version of an old evil appears on the event horizon of mankinds slow march toward evolutionary progress, those who preach cultural diversity and tolerance are the first to stake out a position of acceptance. Modern man must be tolerant of new ideas, because through the new ideas, man evolves into a more progressive, and advances creature. This approach seems to be the popular mantra regardless of what lessons have been learned through similar events in the past. Regardless of the lessons mankind has learned about the evil which man can perpetrate against himself, there are those who believe that with enough time, and modern advancements in knowledge, technology, and understanding, man can overcome our propensity toward depraved behavior, which we have shown over and over again that we are willing to perpetrate on others.

They only desired to pursue their self-destructive, and ill conceived political agenda. As such, the U.S. response to this act of war by attacking terrorist cells through out the middle east is an accurate, and correct response. When a nation is attacked, and declared war upon by another armed nation, the former must defend itself against the aggression, otherwise the aggressor will grow more bold, and continue its campaign.

Ultimately rejected by the Roman Catholic church as heretical, Jansenism emphasized the fallen and corrupt nature of man in an Augustianian way, while at the same time suggesting that only God's grace can permit
