JUST PHILOSOPHISING - ON HOW WALKING THE EXTREMIST PATH DOES NOT MAKE US 'EXTREMISTS.! THE END...

So, 'extremism' and 'radicalism' are not, of themselves, concepts and practices which should be shunned and disapproved of, wherever they are found. 

The 'extremist' and 'radical' path which, probably all of us humans who who aspire to bring added value to our lives and the world. 

To make a difference, instead of simply becoming a part of the status quo which we inherit. 

It is an act of 'extremism', of 'radicalism' to bring the voices and animated faces of a humans and animals from across the distant oceans.  Into the homes of people thousands of miles from them. 

As the inventors of the television have done. It is an act of 'extremist', of 'radicalism' to have invented and developed the written text of the different languages which us humans speak.

But it is not an act of 'extremism' or 'radicalism' to for Islamic State and its affiliates to have murdered thousands of people.  


And to have wrought the destruction which they have wrought to the people and countries of all the places where their virulence has broken out. 

That is simply inhumane, unfathomable evil. The suspension of their humanity and the abrogation of their differentiation from being a sentient person to a weaponised instrument. 

Yes, that is just unadulterated evil; the kind of evil which is beyond the understanding of humans, and, let it be said, all the gods. If any of them do exists.

And so it seems to me, that us humans should set about reclaiming and rehabilitating the terms, 'extremist', 'extremism' and 'radical' and 'radicalism.' 

The 'good extremism' and 'radicalism', if you like.
