Finland was invaded once, then we took back what was ours and invaded the USSR and got kicked into semi-subserviance.
Crimea (as much as one can ascribe will to a region) wanted to be part of Russia rather than Ukraine in the 90s when it became relevant and they were kicked into the curb by everyone. You can look up...
But why would there be a need to "die for Danzig"? Russia has been reacting to things happening, it has not been pro-active. Russia reacted to Georgia attacking internationally recognised peace...
Yeah, the sanctions should either be lifted or extended to Ukraine until it implements the Minsk Accords.
You seem to imply that the Russian invasion of Georgia wasn't a response to Georgians shelling civilians and Russian peacekeepers. Kinda like how the Americans just up and invaded Afghanistan for no...

I have heard from a wise Christian that the Bible is not Revelation in itself, the Bible is a medium for Revelation. Your idolation for the man-made words in the Bible border on idolatry.
Have you ever read the Sermon on the Mount? If you haven't, you should pay close attention to what Jesus says about people claiming to be his followers...
Yeah. Old Testament stuff...
The US should send some Javelins to the UAF. That way Russia will get a good look at them when the Separatists take them from surrendering UAF soldiers.
There was no 'Finns' during this time. Some loose tribes at best, nothing that would resemble or warrant a 'Finnish' faction.
The situation in Crimea and Ukraine really has nothing to do with any general 'Russian aggression'. Russia has only been reacting in Ukraine (to the revolution, Crimean desire of being part of...
This worked for me! I battled I don't know how many hours with this thing, but finally it was only such a tiny issue. Great work!
Are there really such nihilists here, or do you consider people who don't find any higher spiritual meaning in life as nihilists? In my experience, theists who consider life without religion as...
I'd say Christian theology took so much from Greek philosophers, in the definition of God for example, that instead of "Judeo-Christian" it should rather be "Hellenic Judaism".
Why? I don't need to provide any historical references for Jesus outside the Bible because not believing his existance creates a more contrived scenario for early Christianity. Simple Occam's Razor....
I think "weaklings" might refer predominantly to Andrew Johnson? Though "weak" would imply that he wanted to be tough on the South but wasn't, and I'm not so sure he wanted that. IIRC even though he...
They are all about equally "logical", in that one can make a contrived scenario with supernatural and "incomprehensible" strorytelling devices to make them possible. Any story, any ridiculous...
Jesus was a pawn of Satan, aka the Accuser, the loyal servant of God, to test the faith of the Chosen People of God. The test was that this Jesus would claim to be the Messiah, perform convincing...
It would be Americans who would be most shocked, because as we all know apologizing is a sign of weakness and one must always project an image of a strong brute.
It's because those critical of Islam also identify Muslims as predominantly brown people. Criticizing Islam is very often just a smoke screen for racism, and the cases where it's not are rare.
Showing kids that homosexual relationships exist does not equal "promotion of homosexuality". Where exactly do you get this idea that homosexuality is favoured over heterosexuality?
Hah, that's a good one!
Males can have an orgasm receiving anal sex via prostate stimulation. Apparently it's also quite healthy and reduces the likelyhood of prostate cancer. But anyway, your opposition to homosexuality...
That would make abolitionists of slavery 'socialists'.
At first I thought that the term 'socialism' in this thread would be in the colloquial sense, ie social democracy -ish, which is not a very...
I wish it was.
I usually hear the Christians claiming to be oppressed for having their opinions criticised or not being allowed stomp on others. They're the ones who have no clue what oppression is.
That seems a very good summation. I suppose the only argument that can be had here is that, say, to what extent should you care for the poor, or is your standard with regards to when you can or can't...
In practise these are?
Sure, but we can at least easily tell who is only saying they are a Christian: those that don't put the teachings in the Sermon on the Mount (among others) into practise.
Well, being a...
Also from Sermon on the Mount:
I would say faith and works are intimately intertwined in Christianity; without one you can't have the other. Anyone who has heard the teachings Jesus laid down...
The idea that Jewish slaves built pyramids etc comes, as far as I know, purely from Hollywood movies. It's nowhere in the Bible. Otherwise you're correct, there's no evidence for the Exodus. There...
You are under the false impression that 'atheism' is a religion or ideology like Christianity. It's not, all it means is lack of belief in gods, just like theism means belief in god/s. Nothing more,...
Then why don't you answer Lazarus' question? That should be easy if it's so obvious that there are 'virtues' or unifying beliefs that all atheists hold aside from lack of belief in gods.
Except these are God's chosen people we are talking about. God could have easily made it so that it would have been unnecessary for the Jews to practise any sort of slavery while still flourishing....
My experience lately has been that pikes in corridors are not absolutely reliable, and I think that's a step into the right direction as some more heavily armoured units should be able to frontally...
But in reality all we have are Christians who claim to be 'Born Again', who will make excuses and interpretations so as to not follow Jesus' teachings. That's not to say these Christians are bad...
As if I'm going to read every line in a huge post, especially when the relevant sentence is after all the stuff I came to read... Love the mod!
Well, I for one don't really know the intricacies steam workshop, so I was informed by this thread :thumbsup2
As far as I can tell works would follow faith, but to what extent I don't know. Seems to me that those who profess to have faith don't do particularly more works than those who don't. It's perfectly...
