[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tahna Los: [QB] [i]HATRED of religion (in general or in specificity) has been a fundamental aspect of the beliefs of the three greatest murderers of the century: Stalin, Mao, and Hitler. When was the last time you heard about a bunch of Christians getting together and killing a few million people? Oh, wait. It's never happened, by definition.[/i] Don't know much about Stalin to make an opinion. Mao? Yes. He knocked over statues saying they run contrary to Chinese beliefs. Buddhist Priests were forced to flee for fear of persecution. And of course, there is the Dalai Lama. But you say a million? That's an exaggeration. Unless you can actually provide proof of that number. Then I will shut up on that note. Hitler on the other hand was Christian, and the Nazi symbol that he used was once a Christian religious symbol. His beliefs against the Jews were not only rooted in jealousy of their prosperity, but the fact that the Jews were responsible for the death of Jesus Christ as indicated in the bible. [i]You want to outlaw religion because of some perceived danger it presents? OK, how 'bout we outlaw all displays of communistic and socialistic beliefs, too. They've been responsible for nearly a hundred million deaths in this century alone, FAR more than you could possibly blame on any religion. Heck, I doubt that all religions combined have caused that many deaths throughout all of history.[/i] Come now. You haven't really remembered what The_Tom told you, have you? Pinochet? Capitalist, pure and simple. Yet he killed many people who opposed his regime. Betcha that Milosevic was not a Socialist or a Communist either. And I am beginning to believe more that Hitler wasn't exactly a socialist despite what his party's name stands for. Ariel Sharon is getting up there, with his disregard for his Middle East Peace. And many people say he is RIGHT-WING. This is in terms of economics. Like many other capital minded people, he wants his country to flourish economically. And let us not forget the Islamic Fundamentalists, who line their pockets with gold from their oil profits, and kill people because they are missing a piece of sacred clothing. It is not the matter of whether one believes in communism or capitalism. It is the matter of whether or not one believes in fascism and libertarianism. Communism and Capitalism is nothing more than an economic mindset. Remember that. [/QB][/QUOTE]
