I see no way this could ever backfire!

They know nothing other than being subservient to a deity. You can not have 4 or 5 generations of devotion like this and go cold turkey. Not even just cold turkey, but going from worship god/Kim family to ousting them. The reason they fear him and follow him is because who can oppose a god?

I know full and well what theocratic rule is Drich. What makes you think your religion is going to help this issue?

Quote:Your not a history major are you?

Irrelevant, you're not an English major are you?

Quote:Maybe look up world history and how religion has influenced it. This is a very old problem, with a tried and true solution.

I know full and well how the world has been affected by religion and let me tell you it doesn't do your religion any favors to remind people of it's past.

Tried and true huh? Yeah I suppose religion at the point of a sword has worked in the past there for Christianity Drich. Hard to think or act for yourself when you'll be killed for it.

Oh... That sounds familiar... Almost sounds like... Nah, couldn't be.

Anyway;

You got a point that pertains to this situation in particular?

Quote:Your a tard if you think these people are only getting murder for their beliefs.

You're a tard if you think that I'm unaware of the fact that there are plenty of other terrible reasons these people are being murdered for. This is a debate over whether your religion is helping the matter. Here's a hint; it's not.

Quote:Again the history of civilzation says otherwise. like it or not the worship or right to worship a given deity has spawned wars, revolutions and established countries...:thinking: hmm If only there were some large nation/example in the west was established/embolden to through off their oppressors chains to worship the way they wanted too, so as to prove my point.

Again, giving me reminders to the history of religions affects upon history will leave you with a bad taste in your mouth. Without religion these wars and revolutions would never have been necessary.

Almost makes it seem like the world would be a better place without religion now doesn't it?

:thinking:

Again, tell me how your religion will help with the effort other than a small amount of dissidence and more deaths.
