Because it's a fact. Had gays been taken care of with Catholicism, we wouldn't have world troubles.

But all of todays problems are caused by straight people. What country is run by a gay person?

One prepubescent poster does not America make.

AS i aid in a previous post, the small percentage of this kind of American is sadly the loudest and most heard. Which is a major reason why people hate the USA.

That is true of any group...but I don't let that affect how I feel about the majority.:wink:

It's a larger problem in America then anywhere else, due to it's position in the world's mediaand the fact that the small percentage of jerks seem to hog the spotlight for the country as a whole a lot more then they should. I find the worst thing to come out of these small numbers of American are stereotypes. Granted, there is an American stereotype of the loud, McDonalds eating, obese moron, but that's not without some foundation, again due to the exposure of the small number of these "American everymen". However, they've cruelly stereotypesd many other countires inhabitants, and without any foundation, usually, and worse, they are normally actually serious when making these. Take my own country for example, Ireland, if the stereotypes are to be believed, all Irish people have red hair, "Seamus" is a very common name for men, all Irish men are heavy drinkers and are violent wife-beating street brawlers, and we say "Top of the morning to you" as a greeting, and only ever wear green, and most annoyingly of all, every one of us has the same intensily annoying accent, which would be high pitched "Oirish" accent. None of these whatsoever is true. Not even one. In fact, the tradition of wearing green of St. Partick's Day is an American custom, and doesn't even exist in Ireland. Ok /rant, that will probably seem a tad unneeded, but I really had to get that off my chest.

Ah....I'm part Irish.  Some people stereotype yes.  Not all....and the Irish are well liked for the most part. St Patricks Day is rather big.

[QUOTE="woody998"]So, it still happened, it dosent matter when. And im not claiming the UK has freedom like no other.LJS9502_basic

And??? No one denies it happened. However, you were using it as an excuse to put down the US....when many countries were involved in the same trade. In addition, slavery had existed in many cultures throughout history. This was not an isolated case.

As well, I've never claimed the US has freedoms like no other....your point???


It is true that slavery is a very old practice.  But there is a difference between the American Slave trade and slavery in other parts of the world.  The man difference comes form that the American slave trade was along racial lines first also the slave trade was generational.  By that I mean that if your parents were slaves then you were also a slave.  This is different form other parts of the world where a slave could earn his freedom after a set amount of time.  In fact that is how American slavery started with the first 20 slaves being brought over being treated more like indentured servants then actual slaves as they did earn their freedom.  Also by American I'm not just talking the US but the Americas.

Strangely it's not really that big an event in Ireland, it's just a bank holiday, and the major cities will have a parade in the afternoon, but that's all.

So...they are evil cos they wear turbans and are brown? I see, so terrorists are never white? People who believe they are doing whats in their countries best interest (even tho is wrong, I am not saying that) are always black? I see. Some land of free you live in, your just a racist!

They also believe in a pegan god... ...what kind of god tells people to suicide bomb?

What kind of God sent people on Crusades?

Arabs were stealing the land from the Jews when that was going on... ...we had to save our holy land from Arabs. We believe in the same God as the Jews... ...we were HELPING during the crusades.

But, you do know that many times during the Crusaders, the soldiers of 'God' slaughtered innocent lives, for no apparent reason

They might have been suicide bombers... ...we had reasons.

Reasons. Go on.

Again, the Catholics had to protect themselves from the suicide bombers during the crusades.

Suicide bombers during the Crusades. You are the stupidest person I've ever met.

You sir need to learn to respect others. Calling me stupid for a fact is degrading and uncivil. You have no claims to back up your words.

I was too busy laughing. You call me degrading and uncivil... this is too much... YOU are the one claiming the crusades took place to save people from suicide bombers. You haven't produced YOUR evidence to back up your claims. You first. Please. This is all very relaxing.

Arabs like to suicide bomb, Crusades took place to stop the arabs from killing the Jews, The Arabs were suicide bombing, Crusaders had to get rid of all the Arabs to stop their suicide bombing. It's simple logic... O___O

Hahaha this is hillarious!

The Crusades started because of suicide bombings?

You're the most ignorant piece of crap I've seen so far on GS!

THERE WERE NO BOMBS OF ANY KIND DURING THE CRUSADES!

The crusades started because muslims attacked christian pilgrims on their way to Jerusalem.....................and no they didnt use suicide bombs to kill them

SEE! The ARABS struck first...they use the same dirty tricks like they did on 9/11. Thank you for making my point!

so your saying all muslims are arabs?
