Massacre of the Innocents

[Mister Agenda]

Call it ALL mythology, if you must. But this mythology intertwined with the history of the Western civilization 
and I can assume shaped our mentality... your mentality as well, I daresay. 
Perhaps, these stories even made us better people (well, at least some of us).

Anyway, if Herod was one of the characters in the Game of Thrones, you would say that this massacre of children was a horrendous act. Right?

Yes, but Herod is a figure from history and it matters whether he actually did it or not. If he did it, it's horrible. If he didn't, it's not like he didn't commit crimes we actually have more evidence of that are worthy of condemnation. Herod was a right bastard, even if he didn't have a bunch of babies murdered. If he did, he's an even worse bastard. What's your point?

I feel like this is going to lead to him bringing the topic to abortion if I say yes......

We all know the bible doesn't really give a shit about children. They wind up dead all the time. What about it?

Children wind up dying every day because of war and starvation while the world stands by and watches. Kim kills his people violently nearly every day while the whole world watches and this could have been easily stopped before he gain nuclear weapon, it's the human race who doesn't care about children and that includes you.

If only I were omnipotent, I would end war and starvation.
