You're identical to the religious extremists you claim fighting.

But it's not really an historical 'topic', is it? The way you posted it, it comes off more as history-related trivia. It fits better in this thread than the other one.

Hilarious You're hilarious when you justify "removing a Historical topic from the Historical section because the mod didn't like the historical fact".

Your post was wrong. Turing did not go to prison. Thus, it wasn't historic in nature.  Hilarious

That's four times with the same "argument" in just the last few posts.

A few days to think about acting right are in order.  Take a breath and take your meds and come back when you are better.

A new survey shows that scientific papers where the results can't be replicated are far more likely to be cited in later studies.

Old people have allot of value, especially when it comes to word puzzles.
Also people who post words claiming they learned them and then don't post the definition of said word are not in my consanguinity neighborhood. Despite how cool their armored wolves look.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
