Hatred hurled from the left towards Christians, why?

Social "Darwinism" was NOT one of Charlie D's ideas. Try Herbert Spencer for that one.

So you kinda tripped there saying he took Darwinism to a new level... Darwin never came up with that idea. The only links between the two are the name itself.

C'mon... history teacher, you should know this.

So explain to me how a Catholic is not a fundamentalist.

When did the whitch hunting stop, and why?

When did the inquesistion stop, and why?

When did the Catholic Church start dining buffet style from the Bible, and why?

Why did the Bible stop being taken literally by the Catholics?

Who decided what was written in the bible was not the word of god, was indeed not to be taken literally and on who's authority was this administered and sanctioned by?

Why does the Catholic church have biggest pedofile ring in the world?

Don't presume to be interlectually superior to me, it makes you look like a snobbish ass.

Ones background shouldn't matter only the way in which you treat people, you have alot to learn about humility.

I'm not going to waste my time compensating for your obviously poor educaton in History. That's your problem, and if you went to public school, it's Michigan's problem, too. I love History, have studied it my entire adult life, teach it for a living, still read it every single day in huge volumes, and I'm telling you, Mr. Conspiracist with a Computer, YOU DON'T KNOW THE STORY OF ADOLF HITLER. Let me put it in terms even you can understand: I HAVE READ AT LEAST 20 TO 30 SERIOUS, SCHOLARLY WORKS ON ADOLF HITLER, AND HAVE TAKEN SEVERAL COLLEGE-LEVEL COURSES ON NAZI GERMANY, WWII, ITS CAUSES, AND AFTERMATH. I don't give a damn about your lack of knowledge. Hitler hated Judaism and Christianity, but had to be careful about totally wiping out the latter, since most Germans, even though they caved in and opted for pre-Christian, Germanic tribalism in their following of Hitler, still belonged to either Catholic or Protestant traditions. The Germans have always been given to tribalist totalitarianism, racism and overwhelming aggression. The Romans knew this about them, all too well, which the Catholic Church did as well, as it wrestled to convert them in the Middle Ages. HITLER WAS A THROW-BACK TO PRE-CHRISTIAN, GERMANIC BARBARIANSIM. He wasn't a Christian and NEITHER ARE YOU. Get off my religion, Bakunin. :FU1:

Your knowledge of Western History is pathetic. No wonder you're trashing the treasures of my ancestors with such reckless abandon. I never want to hear another arrogant European brag about the supposed 'superiority' of his culture or educational system. :thumbdown:

Right......I'M TALKING ABOUT HITLER, dammit. Hitler.:no:

Well, I was trying to expand my knowledge by asking some simple questions, when they are answered I will have learnt something.

Any chance they can be answered?

That depends on you. I'm not here to educate you. That was the mission of the society in which you grew up, and it was the responsibility of your parents to support the hard work and good intentions of your teachers. But, it's not hopeless. This is the 'Information Age', after all. I'd recommend that you get busy reading, but I suspect your mind is closed, and you will believe what you want to believe, no matter what you read. I'm so happy to be an American patriot working with American teenagers in Texas. The vast majority are patriotic, Christian, and good to the core. I work hard to galvanize their love of virtue, as I prepare them to go to college, and expose themselves to the onslaught of Leftist professors. :no:

I know who you are talking about. However if you want to make a differentiation between Hitler's beliefs and Christianity, you'd best be making one between him and Charlie D.

This responds to my point how, again?

By the way, you sort of overlooked the fact that the Catholic Church created the Bible, and the pope can pretty much do whatever the hell he wants with the belief system of the Church. But since I really don't see what this has to do with "Catholics=Fundamentalists", whatever.



You have made yourself look like a snobbish ass quite a lot, you just did it, in fact, perhaps it's your negative influence.



I really don't see what you're talking about. And really, you seem to enjoy being an *** to Christians.

Nope. You've missed the whole point, again, which doesn't surprise me. It's apparent you're not well-read. I doubt you've ever read a single book on Hitler -- or even a section out of a basic history text about him. I'm not referring to Darwin, the man, the thinker, the scientist or writer. And yes, the conception of evolution by Spencer before Darwin is old news. THAT'S NOT THE POINT. The point is that HITLER took the popular notion of Social Darwinism, and added a most sinister twist, which served as a major foundation of his ideology of genocide and his Final Soluton policy (AKA: the Holocaust). Furthermore, he argued that doctrine in direct, purposeful defiance and denunciation of Judeo-Christian morality, thought, culture and ethics. It was his COUNTER-POSITION to Judeo-Christian thought. It's what he argued to convince Germans to kill without mercy, regret, or any trace of guilt. It coincided beautifully with pre-existent, pre-Christian, Germanic tribalism, that which all outsiders, including the Romans of antiquity, and the Medieval Catholic Church, found almost insurmountable in their struggles to tame the German barbarians.

Were you not Christian and do you not practice darwinism? I count yes and yes.

"Practice"

You must have thesaurus.com up or something. Again, not a religion, nothing needs to be "practiced" by religious custom.

The horse is dead. Stop beating it.

You can't seem to get along without justifying your religion by calling everything else religion. It's funny. Sort of a "Yeah, well you're delusional too!" response similar to what you get from taunting a child long enough about things they don't understand.

So yeah, you and evolution would fit. Not my fault your IQ is near room temperature.

One more little tidbit... Hitler believed in God

Yet you claim to believe in Darwin?

Are you kiddin, i get to much mileage out of this.

You are a believer just like every body else. We believe in a superior being, you believe in a man. Both of these require faith. I admit it, you are in denial of it.

So did you.

Erm,....well we are establishing that a fundamentalist is someone who takes the teachings of the Bible literally and that all there in is fact,...correct?

My question is at what point in history did the Catholic church decide the bible was indeed not fact and not to be taken literally as Mr Pino has indicated?

Who sanctioned this shift and by who's authority?

I was only responding to your statement that there is no necessary distinction between Fundamentalists and Catholics, nothing else.

However, you don't really think the entire Bible was taken completely literally throughout history, do you? That's a very complex issue, and from the start many of the Old Testament customs were not followed (circumcision was deemed unnecessary, for example) but the church as a whole has changed through history as a necessity, because society changes.
