Auraptor, why would you deny the correct use of that term as if it means something else? Why on earth did this circular conversation happen?



Why ? Because the modern use of that word has been bastardized for political purposes. Yes, we 'occupied' Germany and Japan, for a time, after a devastating world war. But we weren't there to colonize or permanently take control of those nations. They ignore the 'temporary' aspect.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

Chris, I wish you were right; it WOULD be amusing. I think you're close, in that Rap HAS to be an act, nobody is that deliberately, persistently, consistently stupid. But I don't think he does it to make people smile, I think he does it for attention, to be contrary because the more contrary he is, the more attention he gets. Used to believe that; started giving him the benefit of the doubt because he can SEEM quite rational on subjects outside RWED/politics, but some of his more recent "arguments", culminating with this one, just make it impossible to believe he's for real.

Of course, the fact that he's doing so just makes him that much more stupid and that much more of an asshole, especially in threads like this where he, as clearly shown, is only arguing with HIMSELF, but that's neither here nor there...

Aside from which, who on earth ever called Christianity a "religion of hate"?? Where did he dream that one up? Obviously ANY religion can be used to foster hate, but...ach, why bother: See above.

Niki - Bill Maher said it. All I did was post the video of him saying it.

And that , in YOUR mind, makes me an asshole ?

It seems honest, rational and sincere debate can only occur when one agrees fully w/ the extreme, hard core Lefties on this board, and even then, under their arbitrary terms.


That should be posted at the top of the page, for future reference.


And also... I'm more real than you can possibly imagine. Try some of that tolerance the Left loves to preach about so often.
