My point is that he tried to help at first but got abused for his good intentions and that easily leads to apathy. Not all ppl act like that of course. michael: In this story, Timmy’s class is the “West” and Johnny’s class is the “Muslim world”, and Johnny is a moderate while the bullies in his class are the extremists.

But then again there's this Romeo and Juliet story... I read about the “prison guards and inmates” experiment… wonder is it really encoded in our DNA to do that We vs Them thing?

It's like ppl cannot see the forest for the trees anymore and that's just illogical and wrong. But definitely appreciate your thoughts on this. Maybe you can write a follow-up or a rebuttal. ;) starry: I tagged it with “Islam” because unfortunately, many Muslims are maligned exactly as how I’ve potrayed it in the story.

And after hours, if I'm on it's usually late at 11:30pm. That is if I'm not too tired. Will drop by your blog. :) bluey: yeah yeah I've read about the experiment too. There's also another similar experiment which imagined one group of kids to be prison guards, and another to be prisoners. cflln: thanks man! :)

It reminds me of an experiment described in my psychology 101 textbook. It involved a teacher and 2 groups of children (1 group with blue eyes and the other with brown eyes).
