Let's just call it what it is and stop the euphemism of
fetus for baby and abortion for killing.

A fetus is a baby now? Does it wear a diaper? Sleep in a crib? Do you burp it?

Rock-a-bye fetus
In the tree-tops.....

A fetus is a developing hunk of goo. At the beginning it doesn't even know what gender it will become.

If you abort a fetus you are left with nothing more than medical waste.

Hitler was a christian, the holocaust had the blessing
of the pope, and have you never heard of:

What history class did you learn that Hitler was a Christian? Yes the pope did nothing but neither did Roosevelt.

The Crusades?

The Inquisition?

Maybe 12k people were killed versus 80 million thats the entire population or more that were on this planet at that time.

You are really trying my patience.

You are the one that shows a lack the ability to research but you sure can regurgitate the B.S. that you've heard with any substantiatiin.

Get real you enjoy this.

Great quote where did he did those numbers? What does he have to back that up? And if you look further he does nothing to substaniate his claims. Nothing from wht I saw. Is this the kind of research you do on everything?

By the Pro-Choise fanatics a fetus is any baby in the uterus. There are second tri-mester abortion done ALL THE TIME. These fetuses as you like to call them are viable outside of the uterus. So when does life start when you become sentinet you didn't address that.

Not from any history class, but from actual quotes from Adolf himself.

Quotes like these:

"By defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord"

Here are DOZENS more:

You have grown so tiresome. I am done with you and your biology-class-flunking, history-class-flunking, anti-semite, fantasy-prone ways. Christ, if he even existed, was just some goofball who got himself nailed to a cross. God was created in man's image, not the other way around. The Earth is not 6000 years old. Man and dinosaurs did not live on Earth at the same time. Catholic and Mormon males should all be sterilized before the Earth's population becomes totally unsustainable. These people are nothing but baby machines. Mother Teresa was a nasty, vile, lying scam artist. The current pope is a Nazi. Charles Darwin was one of the most important men to have ever lived. There's life on other planets, but they've never come here (and "abducted" people). You should not be allowed the use of any of the equipment that we sell and install, nor should you be able to own an automobile, a cell phone, go to the hospital, take medicine, have running water, electricity, or any of the other hundreds of devices and services that are the direct result of science, research and technology. If you want to have half-a$$ed-backwards beliefs and deny science go ahead, but you should go live in the trees in the jungle like your simian ancestors.

The pathos lies in your inability to read though allthe quotes to find that one alomost everyone he contradicts himself and what he actually did. As far as being antisematic that you pulled out of your butt becasue I never said anything one way or the other. Once again where is your sciene behind this "There's life on other planets"? You take information and it's face value - as long as it fits your comfort zone - without doing any research to see if there is any substaniation:

"Quotes like these:

"By defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord"

Hitler said this but what is his Biblical basis for this? You don't know.

I've grown tiresome because I've pointed out flaws in most of your concepts that you can not defend.

I'll throw your last question back on you, and ask if you followed the link provided on the page I posted..? He shows all of his references.

Where exactly did you get your numbers...? Of course you using a span of between 25 to 60M for one example gives you a biblical like accuracy for what actually happened.

Just because you hope that the major players in the world death tally were lying and didn't have any religious motovation, doesn't mean they didn't. How do you know that Hitler wasn't motovated by what he thought his God wanted him to do? He said that he was... you weren't there, and it wasn't written in the bible so what are you going on? ...is it faith, or more so hope that it isn't true?

...and come on. 12K only died in the longest and bloodiest battle in world history. You're really trying to convince yourself now. lol...according to you more women were killed by the accusation of being a witch, (roughly 50k+). Which (no pun intended) was also religiously motovated. This is what I was talking about with being blinded by your faith. You're grasping, and trying discount numbers of others when you've done nothing to back up your claims.

What was the longest and bloodiest battle?

You use that as reference material? He doesn't even have the cojones to say who he is and what his background is. Is this the kind of source material that you normally use? This is the best that I could find on this blog this is the link at the bottom. Here's what the posted on that page: "By Mike Purdy | A graphic designer working in the advertising industry and living in Knoxville, Tennessee". So I don't know if he is the source of this drivel or not. If he is the source for your information and you have the audacity to make fun of my beliefs. I was going to take the time and it doesn't take long to give you a long list of links for each point put if this is the kind of garbage that you're going to use I'd rather agree with davidcasemore than waste my time refuting this.

That was the guy who did the math. The resource he used was located by the link at the top of his page. Here's the to link to the beginning of his source, cause I know you hate the idea of dicovering this by your own devices:

[Link: users.erols.com]

Why his link starts a the grouping of K,L...?...I don't know.

I know you have a hard time with realizing what's right in front of you, so I'll remove a couple of sentences and bold a couple of other things from your post to show you blind you're trying to be.

He doesn't even have
the cojones to say who he is and what his background is.

Here's what the posted
on that page: "By Mike Purdy

Now as far as this:

Is this the kind of source material that you normally
use?

I have yet to see anything backing your numbers. For the record I linked that guy's blog to detail the tally, and sited his resource for the approximated numbers, which is far more than you have done my friend. It's funny that you mock me for my research when you have shown none thus far. I have to assume it's a defence mechanism at this point.

I have no problems continuing this with you, if you can actually start to back your claims, rather than holding your breath, stomping your feet, pretending it's not true. Of course you can't, so it makes sense that you're at the point of conceding.

So far I've asked you:

certainly, and factually, done more harm to each other
than good.

Racism. Since race as a collection of physical traits is not really a scientific concept, it's difficult to distinguish between purely racial conflicts and all your other garden-variety ethnic conflicts. Whether a conflict is racist or not seems to depend entirely on whether the enemy originated just across the mountains or half a world away. Generally, what people mean by racism is probably covered by African Diaspora, Apartheid, Colonial Activities and Indians.

So....?..... who's the one not providing research....?

edit: I forgot to mention, if you follow the link I posted above to where the above info is listed. Each incident is actually a link to the details of each conflict, which includes death toll.

What was the longest and bloodiest battle?

My bad...according to my reference material, (which you've already discounted). The crusades resulted in roughly 1.5million deaths. That's a little off your number of 12k, but hey, lets stick with biblical accuracy for sake of arguement. There's no mention of length, but I was always lead to believe that it stretched over many years. I'll see what I can find.

[Link: users.erols.com]

edit:

Ok..., the conflict in the middle east is being accepted as the longest "conflict" in world history, 2000+ yrs. I think that one takes it...lol. Of course this hasn't been constant battle, but either side hasn't been at "peace" with one another for that length of time.

The first crusade start circa: 1095AD (AD added for your reference)
The final crusade (#9 against opposing religious groups) ended in: 1272AD

Again...not constant battle, but just a little shy of 200yrs for the church's violent intolerance for a difference in religious belief, just the same.

smokinghot,

I think it's great that you've taken the time to post all of this information. I don't think it's likely to change mcn779's mind, though. Like most under-educated, low-functioning, brainwashed souls, he seems unable to get past his religious and dogmatic upbringing for some rational and evidence-based ideas. I'm washing my hands of him. Good luck to you. I'll check in from time-to-time on this thread to see if you make any progress. Keep up the good fight!

Thanks David...

Truly though... I have no interest in trying to convince mcn779 of anything. I really do think faith is a great thing, and if some need a god figure to make through the day, so be it. Who am I to judge...? Other than I personally think the world would be better served if efforts and money (see link) needed to believe in a god were focus on the worlds problems.

However I take exception to those (funny how it's always someone of religion) that say that I'm close minded. When it's obviously the other way around. I'm open to any possibility, even a god based one. Unfortunately it must be my over active common sense that makes me lean toward the side of science.

I don't get why it is so hard to say that we are predisposed to certain beliefs.

Admitting it has got to be next in line to the three hardest words to pronounce in the English language (I was wrong).

If someone generally doesn't like God or God-believing people, he will tend to digest more news/info sources to support his beliefs, and there are plenty of them! Plenty enough to satisfy anyone who wants to leave God out of his life. With the internet, there is no lack of evidence for anything you choose to believe!

I happen to believe in God and can find enough evidence to support it. Since I am now leaning in that direction, I am more interested in reading things that support my beliefs. I freely admit it.

Why can't both sides admit it? Why can't both sides just say "I know you can find lots of evidence to support your belief and I respect that" and be done? We can banter a bit, not change any minds, but just end up with respect at the end of the day instead of 5th grade name calling? I find the interchange of ideas very interesting but the kiddie name calling is a little old.
There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions.
