So if I believe IB, which I do not, the Christians could never persecute Christians.
Hmmmm.... how many people see some very serious logic flaws in that. But then it is IB we are talking about, so logic flaws and lies are expected.
Christianity hasn't been used recently to murder large numbers of people in its name? Google 'positive Christianity'. And then get back to me. For those that won't bother, it's the nazi version of Christianity in which Jesus was aryan and was sent to wipe out the Jews. I know the crusades were a long time ago but this was just 70 years ago. Is that too long ago to count?? Originally Posted by UnderConstruction

So if I believe IB, which I do not, the Christians could never persecute Christians.Actually, Old-THUMPER, what was said, and contrary to what you stupidly imagine was said, Old-THUMPER, is that Nazis did not persecute others in the name of "Christianity".

"Not many Germans lost much sleep over the arrests of a few thousand pastors and priests or over the quarreling of the various Protestant sects. And even fewer paused to reflect that under the leadership of Alfred Rosenberg, an outspoken pagan, Bormann and Himmler, who were backed by Hitler, and the Nazi regime intended eventually to destroy Christianity in Germany, if it could, and substitute the old paganism of the early tribal Germanic gods and the new paganism of the Nazi extremists... Bormann said publically in 1941, 'National Socialism and Christianity are irreconcilable'" (p. 240, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich: A History of Nazi Germany, by William Shirer).

Gays can't be Christian? Go read up on Hitler and Christianity.

Because Christians have never persecuted other Christians Originally Posted by UnderConstructionYou lie again, you "#Grubered" Odumbo Minion. Hitler and his minions were using science, such as the highly regarded *science* of phrenology, to identify and separate the master race from those he and his associates termed "Der Untermensch", you "#Grubered" Odumbo Minion. BTW, you "#Grubered" Odumbo Minion, have ever heard of the Conversos and Moriscos?
Chicken Dick. Nice to see you again. I have a good little chuckle when I see you've posted again. I'm sure it's something like; you gimp odumbo believer, you're such a doo doo head you gruber. Whatever the fuck that means Originally Posted by UnderConstructionYou're like a virus that doesn't see how the community is being inoculated with facts that completely negate and nullify your lies, you "#Grubered" Odumbo Minion.

IB, your point was the Nazis couldn't be Christians since they persecuted Christians.No, Old-THUMPER. You are again obviously quite stupid and wrong, Old-THUMPER. The point was that the Nazi leadership was pagan, not Christian, and though they did persecute Christians, they did not persecute them in the name of Christianity, or even pagan gods, Old-THUMPER, They persecuted them in the name of a secular, fascist state, Old-THUMPER.
My point was that your point was false. And it was. Christians have killed many Christians arguing over who was the better steward of Christ's mandate to love one another. And you see nothing odd in that, do you? Originally Posted by Old-T
More confusion???? Who said that christians are not gay or the reverse? Nazism was not a christian movement but there were christians who were Nazis. How hard is that to understand? Originally Posted by JD BarleycornYou said many of the nazis were gay as a retort to my claim of them using christianity as a vehicle, thereby insinuating that they could not be both christian and gay. Is it that hard to understand. You can't even follow your own line of thinking. Go do a little research on Hitler and christianity. I never said it was a christian movement but they most certainly espoused christian beliefs that they then twisted to fit their own needs.
You're the one twisting like a pretzel. I'm just sitting here trying to interpret and understand where the POTUS is coming from. You act like you have the inside scoop but you're doing a piss-poor job of explaining his remarks. Why don't you just throw in the towel and admit he can't be defended?Still kind of amazed how everything on this "political post" always ends up turning into a bunch of name calling.
Awww, such a disappointment! Lemme know when you put me on ignore. That means you've tapped out and I can take a victory lap.

Originally Posted by UnderConstructionI first ask myself, why bother but I have to go forward....my factual claim that many of the early Nazis were gay is true and it has nothing (I never said that it did) to do with Christianity. I just wanted your response (and I got nothing back) about that. It would seem to that using what passes for logic here is that since so many early Nazis were gay then it must be a gay movement as well. Not my logic but the logic on display.
