Hey Dodo, you catch back up?

Yeah, Marc hasn't been around much lately. I think he's turning into another Wade.
I'd really love to have more hulls and ship pieces. And I think a large pack would be well worth $10.
Somebody say something Conquest has started another monologue.
Marc did the topic keep you away or were you just off doing something more important?
Sure, but have you 2 voted on the latest poll.
Right Faery, time for a subject change I'm sure alot of people are feeling offended or uneasy reading this.
Guys religion is really a bad topic I'm sure we're scaring alot of people off.
Conquest what do you think the Holocaust was? it was genocide.
The Catholic Church believes that the Jewish people have lost the way. And most Catholics believe that no matter how good a person is they will not get into Heaven if they are not Catholic, because it is Church law. Faery karma is the belief that all of your actions both good and bad will be paid back to you (usually ten fold).
Conquest, people in Shinto do not believe in god and they are not Atheist.
The Inquisition, crusades, salem witch trials, Europe when Protestants started leaving the Catholic Church. And any country in recent years such as Bosnia and Somalia that have practiced Genocide just to name a few.
Faery not all religions worship the same god. Some religions worship multiple gods some worship no god. Most of the Wiccans I knew did not worship god, but mother earth. Also Wicca have strong beliefs in Karma.
There are alot of attrocities in history. World history is full of mass murders and persecution.
Conquest, George Bush is Devout Catholic.
Conquest, true freedom is anarchy. Paganism is just a different spiritual belief system than you have. And officially the Catholic Church considers Muslims and Jews to be heathens even though they are all off shoots of the same religion and worship the same god.
Conquest why don't you name some of the worst attrocities in history and I will tell you the religion responsible. You will be amazed.
Conquest, the year of Jesus' death starts about 1 AD. The Empire did not fall to the Huns, Goths, and Gauls until about 300 AD. Just if you think about how long the Roman Empire was in decline it was still older than the US.
Conquest, all the people that were Prussians are long dead in the region they once lived the people are either Catholic or Lutheran. And if you want to call people pagans because thier country was at one time, than you are saying all of Europe and the US are pagan. And as far as Satanism or anything else if you are going to disagree with someone it is best to understand thier perspective. If you don't understand the other person it is difficult to prepare an intelligent arguement the
Conquest, you really need to look it up Caroling was not practiced until after the fall of the Roman Empire.
Faery, you would be amazed by how much I know about Wicca (I was once invited to join a coven), Druids, Buddism, Shinto, Bushido, and Satanism.
Conquest Prussia is now called Germany and has been called this for a little over a hundred years. The last time it was called Prussia was during the American Revolution. And Poland along with most of Eastern Europe is mostly Russian Orthodox.
For Christmas, things that have pagan origins and have nothing to do with Jesus are: the tree, yule logs, caroling, mistletoe, ivey, snow, Santa Claus, tinsel, and so forth.
Conquest, the KKK are not pagans. They are mainly white male Southern Baptists. If you're going to remark about religions you should really study them first. There are alot of major religions and each them has many off shoots. Christianity is a major religion. It's off shoots are Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox, Russian Orthodox, Baptist, Lutheran, Johvas Witness, Methodist, and many more. Even what are considered pagan beliefs are just as varied. And Satan worshippers are not something I'm going
Conquest there are alot of pagan religions and while Christianity was converting 'heathens' it adopted alot of local customs. Christmas is a perfect example of a holiday that exist with bits and pieces of many different cultures.
