Stubbornly Stubborn

I was mentioning that I am currently reading the series by Sergei Lubyanenko. Hmm, I can even spell his name without referring to the book!!

Anyway, in the book, there is the main character by the name of Anton Godensky. Throughout the series, I noticed that this character is very, how shall I put it, mule?? He is kind but he just can't seemed to see the other side, or at least pretend to understand. His one tracked mine really irritates. His philosophy is like, "Either you are with me or you are my enemy." And there is no two way about it.

I mean, in real life, can one be so stubbornly stubborn? Your enemy deed is evil all the way? It is just like some of the religious fanatics which simply refused to acknowledge any good deeds just because it was not done by someone from the same order as theirs. Even when deep down their heart, they know that it is a good deed but their stubbornness simply refused to let them accept it at face value, they have to find something to taint it.

I mean, a good deed is a good deed, right? People can say all kind of things but when it come to the very basic, everyone is same right? Like, how pork is not kosher (halal) but what about people who consumed them? What what if the one who consumed pork happened to be a donor (blood etc) to the one, whom port is not kosher?

This type of questions, obviously has been asked by greater people than me but I always looked at the basic, a good deed is a good deed, no matter how you want to paint it.
