I'm against murder with firearms in the U.S., and I'm against child sacrifice in Uganda. Therefore, there is no beam in my eye. Those two positions are entirely consistent - in favor of preserving innocent life. Now, why don't you try staying on-track with the subject here. Your position seems to be that as long as there are gun murders in America, that Americans have no business complaining about murders of children that occur elsewhere. Is that the kind of logic you teach in your classroom? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #6 October 12, 2011 QuoteWhere child sacrifice is a business BBC - Uganda Do you really believe that sacrifice of our children does not occur and placed up on altars of corporate profit and greed here in western civilization?. The Military Industrial Complex as composed of the corporations who benefit from all the death and destruction have been doing just that for fun and profit for a long long time... for those willing to see it. Oh thats right... Mom and Apple Pie and Patriotism. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beowulf 1 #9 October 12, 2011 You guys really think that a military volunteer who is 18 years or older and dies in combat is the same as a child well under 18 years of age that is abducted, tortured and killed?! REALLY!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beowulf 1 #11 October 12, 2011 Amazon was referring to Western Children. Amazon seems to me to be saying since Americans send their children to war this example of small children being abducted and killed for ritual sacrificial purpose isn't all that bad.

Seeing as he's incapable, we cut him some slack when he doesn't understand when others do so. He also thinks he is subtle and clever when insinuating that others are racist or fascist when they disagree with him. He isn't, and it's insulting, but don't take it personally, he does that to everyone. He also seems to expect you to answerotherpists before they hit the board.

How many of this generation of young adults have been sacrificed so far for profits?? I know in the previous.. it was a hell of a lot higher number... maybe we can get you guys to step it up with a few more wars... and see if you can catch up. QuoteMany believe that members of the country's new elite are paying witch doctors vast sums of money for the sacrifices in a bid to increase their wealth. Seems like our wealthy who own the "defense contractors" are paying the poor who are marketed to "volunteer"...very little... so they can increase their vast wealth here in the west...

Marinus 0 #23 October 12, 2011 The topic is really simple here: Child sacrifice. As in the religious sacrifice of cute kiddies. This can mean anything from "humanely" drugging kiddies, bash their skulls in and bury them on a holy mountain or something even more depraved then that. I don't know why people keep up bringing all kinds of other things, but that really doesn't add to the discussion. If I were a ideological cultural relativist, it's what I would do to dodge the question, btw. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
