  1. Also, The Berlin Wall and The Forever War. That'll do it for me for this round.
  2. Yeah, WWII and the Holocaust would have happened without Mein Kampf. Hitler didn't need it to get his views out there. The book was a flop when it released.
  3. I definitely loved their tshirts in high school, but now you can get gaming and music tshirts everywhere so I haven't been to a Hot Topic in years.
  4. Trust me, I get what you're saying, I just don't think it's particularly relevant in the big picture. Whatever was "intended" it's not what it's been used for over the centuries. Also, wtf does Hot Topic have to do with this?
  5. We know where the Bible as it is today came from, who put it together in form we know now, sure. But there's plenty of uncertainty as to who actually wrote the words before it was all nice and neatly(not really) put together. But I don't see much relevance in that. As to the rest, I feel that you misunderstand. But like I said, I stand where I stand and that's not changing and I'm about finished cooking dinner, so I don't have enough time or interest to debate this all night. Once again, we disagree. Moving on.
  6. What I read of it just seemed like a bunch of rambling an internet memes. He just wanted the attention. I have no desire to look into it or read further, but I don't think people should be punished for reading it, either.
  7. We hardly even know with much certainty the individuals who created the Bible. And It doesn't much matter when it's been used for centuries to justify horrific acts. Even today, countries are trying to create laws executing people for being gay because that's what the bible says is the punishment. To its most ardent followers, it's not simply a collection of stories or a catalog of history. They see it as the direct word of god, one to be followed closely. And that's what people have done over the course of history. All this applies to the Koran, too. Like I said, I don't agree with you and I'm kinda busy on and off tonight and don't care to pursue this argument all night long. I stand by my statement and that's pretty much that. You don't have to agree.
  8. Sure, but I've never seen one made from actual soda. It's essentially just frozen flavored water.
  9. I can read what you're saying. I just don't really agree with it. Or I don't view it the same way. I also think the Bible is largely a piece of trash.
  10. I don't want all the waidu stuff like you do, but it is pretty bad on the script front.
  11. For real. I'm not one for slippery slope arguments, but I don't want to start this trend. Who gets to decide what "incitement" is? We've already demonstrated we can't agree on that.
  12. What are you talking about? You're really condescending when you act like this. I'm making an honest argument, but you don't like it. That's fine and all, but don't act like I'm being dishonest here. We can disagree. I don't really wanna argue about this all night, anyway.
  13. Nah, you're just cherry picking. People haven't been using history books to justify violence for centuries. But when God issues commandments through a holy book, people take it a little differently. Those holy books have incited far more violence than this nutbag's manifesto could ever dream of. Like I said, I don't advocate for banning any literature.
  14. Your style of writing. It just strikes me as erratic. "pew pew" and "boomsticks" and rambling on and on. I feel like I should know who you are if you posted here regularly, because it's a distinct style.
  15. I'm only using your logic. I don't advocate for any literature to be banned. But those religious texts have incited countless acts of violence for centuries. God literally commanded his people to commit genocide. There are Commandments stating the punishment for certain "crimes" is death. It's filled with commands to commit violence. And people have used it to justify horrific behaviors during the entire history of it.
  16. Oh, so all that genocide God commanded his people to commit wasn't really violence. Gotcha.
  17. That despite how much I love Fire Emblem, the dialogue in Fates is quite bad.
  18. I had to look up the racist shyster stuff. I'd never heard of it before. Kinda like how I didn't know "cotton picking" was supposed to be offensive. I'd heard it my entire life, but never related to anything racial.
