I did not define them as far-right.  They defined themselves with their political positions.  One is quite religious and feels that God visited this experience on him and his family to change his heart (a form of Karma?).  I see randomness and not God in his experience, but the lessons are there.

You do not know me, you do not know my friends or the nature of our friendship.  But you are free to construct any image in your mind that makes you feel better.  And I do hope you feel better.
