I am going to go with Ayn Rand's view that irrationality is what causes wars. People choose to forget about the non-aggression axiom.

Those are the people that start the wars in the name of religion.

Well, really, I am agnostic, which is like being between believing and not believing.
And it's amazing how many crusades are fought in the name of one God or another, and how many arguments rise up because someone is defending their religious beliefs.

i have no sympathy for any group of people that allow themselves to be systematically killed or persecuted willingly, and without substantial and serious rebellion.. it is a far better thing to die in defense of your personal liberty than under the will of your lessers.

Because we all know how easy it is to fight people with guns when they break down your door and you're still in your nightie.

Yeah that was definitely my point. You're clearly not understanding what I'm saying. It's absurd to generalize that all the Jews were in the positions to effectively rally against the Nazis. The only thing more absurd then that is saying you have no sympathy for them because they weren't rebellious enough for you during the holocaust. Oh wait...

Why talk to anticipation about this...(s)he is far too immature to discuss anything without condescension.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.
