I was thinking about the Easter Sermon that Ed Young Sr. did this year, which I saw on TV. He was talking about the Jews at the governor's palace yelling "crucify him!" He then said, "if you were there, you would have said it too."

This really got me thinking, I really think he is right. Jesus' own disciples essentially disowned him, what would have kept me from going along witht the crowd?

What do you think you would have done if you were there?

If you lived in the South during the Civil War would you stand up against Slavery?

or lived in Germany during WWII, would you have stood up for the Jews and others taken to the Concentration Camps?

Some did, unfortunately most did not.

It's a strange effect that crowds have on people. They can totally lose any inhibition and knowledge of right and wrong.

No, I don't think so. Even before I got saved (age 31) I was very kind hearted. I'm one of those people who likes to watch Ultimate Fighting Championship but don't want anybody to really get hurt.
