tropical hobbits?
Wow, you’re edgy and therefore cool!
never really read up about aetas. it’s easy to confuse physical features. they look like african pyqmies but filipinos tell me they’re simply folk who were steadily pushed up to the remote hills by christians and muslims alike. features get enhanced by in-breeding more than race. at least filipinos say they’re no diffeent from indo-malays which is what filipinos generally are.
So what you are saying is that when you said race was obvious, you were wrong. Got it.
No, it’s their history of killing and enslaving millions of Christians and Hindus.
Sure. They sold each other into slavery.
As your screen name is Mac Bolan, the name of a supervigilante in a series of pulp novels called The Executioner published in America in the 70s, it seems likely you’re an American.
Jabber the Hutt?
Hey! Nobody told us this would be on the test!
Not unless he said that race is obvious in each and every individual. Broadly speaking, the existence of race as a physical and biological reality really is quite obvious.
I was sort of hoping this thread would die, but I guess it’s time to roll up my sleeves and fight some more ignorance.
(In the above quote, "they’ = Muslims.) And Christians’ history of killing and enslaving millions of pagans (e.g. from Africa) or killing and enslaving millions of Jews (i.e. the Holocaust) gets a pass?
“They sold each other” implies that the process was random and equally distributed. Not so.
Powerful coastal nations sold captured people from other ethnic groups into slavery because the demand on the part of European and American slave traders was enormous. Without that demand on the part of Europeans and Americans of European descent, slavery in West Africa would have continued to resemble what it had been before, bad but really a completely different ballgame from transatlantic slavery.
But congratulations, you win the award for “most outrageous combination of ignorance and blaming the victim,” all enabled by your assumption that all black people are the same.
ETA: I do not intend to imply that all Christians are responsible for the Holocaust, only that blaming all Muslims for the actions of a historical subset of Muslims is just as stupid as blaming all Christians for the action of a historical subset of Christians.
That’s quite a distinction, given the competition in this thread!
And the radical secularists, i.e. the Communists, who killed a hundred million people in Eurasia get a pass? The tens of millions of Christians killed by those radical secularists attempting to uproot and destroy a Christian civilization don’t matter? And all the non-Jews the Nazis killed don’t deserve a mention? Mass murder only matters when done by Christians and Westerners?
The Arab-Islamic world has a long history of aggression against Christendom and the West. Allowing huge numbers of them to settle in Western lands is a really lousy fucking idea.
Only about five percent of the slaves shipped from Africa went to North America, so I don’t see how North Americans could have been bringing much pressure on Africa. Say what you please, almost every African who ended up in slavery in the New World was captured and sold into slavery by another African. And the slave hunters hunted slaves quite eagerly and happily, as it gave them not only an opportunity to get rid of hated tribal enemies but to make a nice profit while doing so. By all indications there are still plenty of Africans who would gladly go back to it.
The Africans had already been capturing and selling slaves to the Arabs for at least five centuries before the Europeans got involved, and unlike the Europeans the Arabs often conducted slave raiding expeditions of their own.
And you seem unaware that the Arab-Islamic world not only bought European slaves by the millions, they also sent expeditions to raid European coastal towns and European shipping for slaves. Christian hunting was considered jolly good sport by the North Africans.
Slavery is a complicated subject, and singling out the Western world for special condemnation for slavery shows a profoundly biased attitude.
Congatulations, you win not only the award for arrogant ignorance, you win another for the demonization of whites.
The Nazis were responsible for the Holocaust, not the Christians. Again, Islam and the West have a long history of conflict, and to act as if this history has no critical bearing on today’s world goes beyond mere denial. It approaches psychosis.
So tell us again who was responsible for the killing of millions in Russia? Was it Communists or ‘radical secularists’?
So race is obvious except for when it’s the exact opposite of obvious. You racists must be killer at twister.
Communists are radical secularists.
Yeah. And Nazis are (were) Christians.
Are you really as shallow as you sound?
No, Communists are people who are ostensibly secular. Party members worship the state.
Do you think the people of North Korea really aren’t religious? The cult of personality around KJI isn’t a little like soft-headed Christians mewling prayers to their carpenter?
:rolleyes: Hitler fully intended to do away with Christianity as soon as he could. Twist it any way you please, Nazism was not a variant of Christianity.
