Bomb squad

Solution

Fanaticism

"I will plant it at the abortion clinic! Those ungodly baby killers will be burning in Hell tomorrow!"

"No! Don't do it! That's as bad as writing atheist books and blogs criticizing religion!"

Bomb

"The uranium atom inflates more and more as neutron after neutron enter it, until the point is reached when it goes pop. Neutros spread in every direction like buckshot and kill everyone in range."

"Are you sure? I saw a documentary short ago where a scientist explained..."

"A scientist? Why would you listen to those people? They invented the atom bomb!"

Suppose

"Suppose there's a ticking bomb hidden in a hospital and one of the bombers is in police custody. Wouldn't torture be justified to make him reveal the location of the device and save innocent lives?"

"Suppose the bombers say they will remotely defuse the bomb if you are tortured."

"Now you are bringing absurd suppositions."
