Sometimes it just takes some good old fashioned southern hospitality to get the job done right.
Now I imagine some of you agree and some could quite possibly disagree with what happened. I know that aside from the religious threads there are those who are almost exclusively political social science oriented. I'd enjoy hearing from some of you who I never get the chance to discuss w/... as well as any of the usual crew I talk w/ who don't normally frequent this kind of thing.... its like Politics... and Religions....
I can't stand the WBC because they give a horrible reputation to the word "church"
I thought the Crusades, the Inquisition, and all the other horrible murders committed in the name of religion had already accomplished this.
But what I think it's interesting that though it never says the guys who did this are atheist or not, it does show that there are other extremist who do thing outside the 1rst amendment rights to get things done.
These are in the south, the Bible Belt, correct? I would bet two apples to an orange that they where Christian, do to statistics... Why would it matter if they where atheists or not?
I can't wait till God just sends a big ol' lightning bolt right up their a**!! haha, talk about southern comfort. But seriously, they are probably the biggest idiots that I have ever seen in my life
For following what he says? And I would bet on Zeus and Thor taking care of that, like they did to touchdown Hesus.
You all just like to argue everything I say dont you? Even when it's intended to be a joke. Grow up.
That is my profession.
Please note that these churches are a corrupt, small collection of churches that did that. Don't group every church with the few that are idiots.
Few? Millions have died. The Native Americans where prosecuted and forced into this religion, abortion clinics are bombed, on top of the things I stated. Really, you could go on for hours stating all the thing religion, and thus churches, have done to harm the world.
I'm pretty sure not EVERY catholic church participated in this, and I'm sure that there were other, smaller churches in that time period that don't get noted, because everything is made out so that Christians look like the bad guys. Please quit splitting hairs here. One catholic church doesn't count for the whole catholic church, and it doesn't count for every church.

The pope advised it, so yes pretty much. Wait, you are saying that the pope sent armies of loyal Christians to invade desert land that had not value, massacring the people who are already living there in many cases, but they are not the bad guys?

So could you give an example of Catholic opposition to these at the time?

Thanks to the hidden agendas of educators and so- called "schollars" in this country, the Christians are made out to be the bad guys, so nothing exists. All your doing is arguing for the sake of being *****, all of you.

Or maybe its the fact that there was no Catholic opposition at the time, most likely because the church officials would have had them silenced.

Stating history is not arguing for the sake of arguing.
The catholic church is a single entity. Also, you came here and posted an opinion now whether or not numbers is being a little picky doesn't matter because you instigated this.

Wait, what? Your argument is "Well there would be proof, but there is a huge conspiracy against me, so nothing survived dem corrupteded cientistis"? Really? The pope massacred people. No one really tried to hard to stop him.

No, don't even go there.
I think Pyro was trying to say that just because the WBC does something disgusting doesn't mean it represents the entire Christian faith in its modern image.
Yes, we can all admit that the history of religion is washed in blood, but let us focus on the here and now. What being the topic of the WBC.
I thought the Crusades, the Inquisition, and all the other horrible murders committed in the name of religion had already accomplished this.
The Catholic church maybe, but IMO the catholic church is still corrupt in many details and they don't give the voice for every single denomination. That's like saying Barack Obama speaks for every single Democrat just because he's the President. I'm a protestant so yes it's still stands on the word church's defecation.
Why would it matter if they where atheists or not?
Because of the double standards that are usually held. When going back to the Piss Christ thread extremeist were being criticized for a radical act, and most notably that they were supposedly Christians. My point is there are other extremeist that are not Christian and that even if they were Christian they aren't being criticized to the same degree because the subject matter is to your liking. I'm not condoning the WBC but it still has it's legal right by the Constitution. So wether it be someone that is destroying a work of art or someone stopping a protest that has it's legal rights they should not be given double standards when both are breaking the First Amendment.
