@ Vladkov I dont see why you can't use the "Swastika" Hitler wasn't the first one to use that symbol. The Japanese have used it and many other cultures have as well.


 

Sri Lanken Buddhism was the first to pioneer it.

not to beat a thread already beaten in to submission but... i dont know about the rest of the old time mmo/gamers but i find it damn funny when every mmo/ game that allows player created guild/group glifs on their toons ALWAYS bring up "what if i use X sign" as an attempt to bash said game or ingame option lolol

most games i have played that have allowed player created glifs ingame generally have some sort of monitoring device/staff so very rarely does offencive items get on the server.

BUT its still funny to watch people try to use it for argumenitive discussion lmao

 

oh and epic thread derail-ment.. if i had a jpeg or gif of a train wreck i would totally post it for epic LOLs!!!! hahah

The Swastika used by Hitler is not the same as the symbol used by a few other countries. And you're thinking China not Japan.

So no, Hitler's Swastika should never be allowed in a game.

Because....?

Christianity has killed more people worldwide than nazis were able to kill.

And yet their symbol is allowed to show in public.

 

 

 

 

 

yeh exactly ..Islamic Jihad , and crusade been worst killers . as always religions are around to control humanity and Religion is the best weapon created by man.

Perhaps. But I think it's important to note, and this is something we can all agree on, is that I slapped down a little bitch that dared to question me.

Win freaking win, baby!

Because Nazism pilar is the hatred of Jews and the holocaust is the result of. Where as christianity speaks for peace and understanding. Seperate between what the ideology says and what people did in the name of the ideology. For Nazism they were the same, for christianity it hasnt been.

Besides, the inquisition was what, 7-800 years ago? The holocaust was 6-70 years ago.

Also, you have the cross in many countries flags and half the countries in the world has christianity as official religion. Good luck convincing them to remove it from their flag.

Too much simplifying.

According to Wiki

(I know, it's not the best source but it's the closest one now) there was more than just antisemitism. And for the record, I don't support any of their ideologies or practices. I'm mentioning them just as a point of comparison.

You can't separate the ideology and people who practise it.

And man can only hope we will someday evolve enough to let the religions fade away. They're afterall merely a way to control people.

I dont know excactly which is more disturbing. The fact that you seem to try and excuse the Nazi ideologi by saying it is not only anti-semitic  but other things as well (something that I have not denied, Nazism is also anti-communist) or the fact that you seem to think that everyone who practice christianity, or other religions, are genocidal maniacs.

Some people who practised christianity, over 600 years ago, commited genocide in the name of christianity. But now the absolute majority do not. I go to church and people in my congregation collect money to send to people who need it, we do not commit, or promote, acts of genocide and nor does the overwhelming majority of christians who are anti-violent.

You have some issues with christianity, or religion, but alot of people who practice religion has done alot of good in the world (such as charity) and it is those that are, now, in majority. Not the extremists who use religion for their own, violent, purposes. If you cant see the difference then I feel sorry for you because then you are no different than a bigot.

 lots of sheep around ..  well human is savage and have to control them by a tool other than guns ,  its Religion. I've got your point and i know that doesnt means if people are practicing they are also killing for their faith , however religious blindness is a highly contagious and life threatening disease. So personally i have problem with religion and fairy tail stories that are dangerous in practice. So its completely normal for him to say and defend what he is thinking .

I'm not here to prove anything since most of the times Religious have to prove their imaginary friend.

Highly contagious and life threatening. Yeah those buddist monks and other people like those in the Salvation Army or the red CROSS (or red crescent) who spend their life helping other people is such a dangerous thing.

If anything we need more of that in life, not less. The fact is that the majority of religous people are non-violent but you choose to not see them because that would not fit your picture of "religion is evil" nonsense.

O, how the time flies when you're having fun.

 

That makes me, what, over 600 years old?

There's still crusades, and as long as there are religions there will be crusades. No matter how you try to justify yourself you're not supporting it, you are when you are part of it.

EDIT: It might also be that GWB is over 600 hundred years old...

Just good fun, someone posted no content here but im laughing reading every line of it

i dont think even knows what a library is by the looks of it lol

We shouldn't be hard for him, they might not have libraries in USA. I've heard that they have adults that can't read.

   Just what we need more eurotrash bashin on us just to bash on it.just keep in mind you rotten bad tooth moron that 90% of the games and more than likely your OS comes from US.Ofc 90% of you peasants just steal  your OS and pretty much all your games and music and movies  to begin with.

USA culture comes from all over the world, specially Europe/UK... so....
