In nature, the strongest survive, that's true. But it doesn't mean that you should go around and kill everyone that's not roman..
NO NO NO sir. It doesn't mean that. But, anyway, Adolf Hitler was a product of evolution. And so, he, the natural (cause evolutional) element of environment, changed it (environment) in way which made some Germans (and not only, there are documented examples of Poles, Italians and even Jews) killing Jews.

If you would say that Hitler WASN'T natural element of environment, then you indeed have to say human isn't an animal. And that's my opinion, actually...

What??

Ben Stein claims that Hitler got the idea to exterminate the Jews from the theory of Evolution. This is clearly bollocks. Hitler was brought up as a Catholic, so his irrational hatred of Jews was actually founded on religious beliefs (Jews have been labelled by Christians as the killers of christ, for those of you who didn't know that).

Wasn't it the Jews who shouted "Crucify him!" at Pontius Pilate when he asked them what he should do with Jesus?

Yes, but that doesn't justify the centuries of injustice towards Jews that followed. Christians also seem to somehow ignore that Jesus was himself a Jew. :|

He doesn't look very Jewish. Not in the paintings, anyway. I wonder if most of them even know. :|


And I found a picture of Jesus and Satan:

I can't quite understand the animosity that goes on between Judaism and Christianity. The two religions both worship the same God and deem Jesus' existence to be the same, so where's the problem?

One considers Jesus to be the incarnation of God, and one doesn't.

And I think the image I posted above makes them look like they're rapping :P

If you think that's dirty, you should see some famous French paintings that were created in the Romantic period. I might try and find some actually.

If you believe in God, it's pretty significant...

I don't see how or why a possible connection between Jesus and God should cause there to be a significant difference..

It's what the whole thing is based around. Christians don't like the idea that Jesus isn't the Son of God. You might go so far as to say that they REALLY don't like the idea that Jesus isn't the Son of God.

I initially thought you meant child porn when you said CP. 4chan has fucked my mind and good.

Anywho.

Opinions on religion? It's bullshit, the lot of it. Religious people are the adult equivalent of those superstitious tweens who go around posting chainletters on YouTube. You know, the sort of messages that go "x years ago, supernatural event x happened. Now go tell all your friends about this and good things will happen to you but if you don't then bad things will happen and/or you will die".

Look at the formula and tell me you don't see a similarity between this and many religious beliefs, hey?

The Quran is just a bunch of nonsense, and you can make it mean anything you want out of context. In fact, it both says that Muslims have to be tolerant towards infidels, and that they should all be eradicated.

For you. It's like a dispute is radiumumum radioactive or isn't it. It can mean nothing for you or an African, but it's really meaningful if you know that your brick manufacturing company adds radiumumum to clay.
