But why?
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"

Qatar is a country where it is a crime to be sexy.

Fair draw last night kind of. Kane missed a glorious chance at the end to win for England

I thought you weren’t going to waste any more of your time on this ‘worthless forum’.
