I shout Godwin due to it being wrong...

If you read what was said, you'd have noticed that it was a rant against those who try to enforce their opinions. Hence it being rather opposite to Hitler.

I also shout Poisoning the Well and Ad Hominem... for the attempt to attack and destroy someone's character rather than their argument.

and removing people's opinions is just as bad. Hitler tried to remove the opinions of millions, almost succeeding at it. You mention enforcing opinions is wrong? You do realize that laws are nothing more than majority opinions right? think about that for a few minutes

now that being said I shout it right back at you, even louder

All the while proposing to enforce far more personal opinions to prevent other people from even HAVING other opinions. So, no, it's not wrong.

So, in other words, you never said you think all religions should be banned, you never said you think people who believe in religion should be rounded up and brainwashed, you never thought you said people should have all religious texts taken away from them?

Oh, right, you did.

You are assuming I'm actually christian, which is only partially true. Since you are still delusional and blame religion for everything instead of the REAL reasons involved you may continue your rant, but know this, we laugh at your insular thinking.

Arsenic, in case you forgot what you said:



From: Arsenic Soyinka
... but no one will admit that ...




the following should be passed by a UN Resolution and
enforced by a strong UN Military Force:

ban all religious holy wars, like for the last 5000 years ...

then ban the Old Testament, the New Testament, the Book of Revelations,
and the Koran too


strip search everyone, and conviscate their Bibles, Crucifixes, and their Holy Beads

then ban all religion from television, satellite communications and the internet ...

finally send everyone for deprogramming who has been brainwashed
by the concept of heaven, the resurrection, and raping 7 virgins

somewhere along the line ...
dont forget to impeach the religious extremeist President Bush,
who has turned America into a Fascistic Religious State like Iran and Israel,
and who also knows how to start Holy Wars, but doesnt know how to end them


that should help clear things up ...


and one more thing ... ban long purple robes, black hats and beards




‡ arsenic ‡




You sure you wanna stand behind all that?

Those religions you blame are actually just used as cover stories.

The real reason is always greed.

Indefensable position? Do a little research into what the instigator's motive's were. Pick a war and research the reasons. It always boils down to "I want what you have"

This relates to alot of things, for example; gay marriage since homosexuality isn't mentioned in the bible and all. Now do some research outside of your little brainwashing sites. I would also suggest reading Fahrenheit 451.

Not as in ideas and inanimate objects.

Or, wait. Haven't you gotten to the point where you understand the difference between correlation and causation?

ironic you should mention 451 ... the book

Christians and other Religionists are always banning and burning books ...
as well as destroying other ancient relics condemned as heresy ...
even the non-religious ones such as the Taj Mahal, now being threatened.


and yes i do stand by my statements in their contexts

so why not turn the tables on them ...
ban theirs, destroy theirs, as an experiment in "as you like it"

as far as the BIble goes ... Christians, in a manner of speaking,
ARE "banning" the Old Testament as well as the New Testament,
and the Book of Revelations

but they dont go so far as to burn them ...

what they do instead is to continually re-write The Bible, and the Original Scriptures ...
by removing words, changing words, and by adding words
that were not in the original texts.

they also move and alter sentences and punctuation,
giving new and different interpretations, to the original ones

this is done for the purpose of changing the original meanings
and intentions of the original scriptures, to promote their new 21st century
fake and contrived versions of theology, and agendas of hate and bigotry.

they, in effect, with this deception and Biblical Fraud,
far worse than the Da Vinci Code, are banning the very essence
and spirit of original religious thought, to fit in line with whomever
and whatever they dont like or disagree with at the moment ...

so your point on the Bible is mute



but thanx anyway for a reponse that was more than 1 or 2 lines
and without personal characterizations

To negate something it has to be established in the first place. All you've done is shown a correlation. Ice cream causes heat stroke, too.

I've yet to use a metaphor.

Ironically you skipped the part where I address your "religions are the root of man's problems" mistake.

just to summarize what you've said so far

"I think religions cause all of man's problems and should be done away with"

here's reality, religion is used as a coverup for greed, lust and human fallibility.

By your way of thinking patriotism/nationalism should also be banned since it starts wars and can lead to people ignoring your view. Same with economic issues, philosphical differences, and even soccer are now banned by your way of thinking all because they have started wars and caused humans to suffer. Shoot we could add cancer and all the other diseases to this list, "you have cancer so you have to be executed"

please think about what you say before you type it, ok?
