This sounds like fun. I love action movies so I can't wait until my life turns into a Steven Seagal movie. Like I go to the store and on the way I have to shoot a few bad guys.
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"

Its irresponsible (and completely laughable) to whip up hysteria about an upcoming World War. There are people who may be susceptible, people who already frightened, who have personal problems, etc.
What we dont need is someone like Winter who acts irresponsibly, without concern for those who might lose their sleep over the hysteria cause by him.
Other than that, in the future maybe productive discussions will be possible on this board, over controversial issues, like the near/middle east, without having a signal to noise ratio of <1. Big thumbs up from my side..

Precisely. There’s no problem discussing the possibility of another world war, but to call EVERY FUCKING CONFLICT the harbinger of a new planetary conflagration is just plain stupid (which is right in Winter’s wheelhouse).

To be honest, it was useful to have WH around to be informed about what Putin is thinking about current topics since WH was on a steady diet of Russian propaganda which he would regurgitate here.
And the way wh goes on about the wars is as if it's our fault that Jews and Muslims are killing each other. Not just our fault but that we are directly torturing him through this war that he is not even part of.
Not to mention that he already opened numerous topics over the years about how the ww3 is just to begin, and sometimes that it had already begun.
But the real war is inside his head between the real world and fantasy in his head.

I really wanted to read his spin on a war between two diametrically opposed religions is, apparently, a "Non-believer war"
