Speech from The Closer Serving the King (Part II)

[HesintheTaNaK]

I love the way that these writers try and fool people into thinking that "extremist" are "misusing" the Qur'an what a farce.....

[minggnim]

@HesintheTaNaK ...or the Bible! But that's not what they're doing.

[HesintheTaNaK]

@minggnim By telling people that "extremist " they are trying to fool people into thinking that Islam is a "religion of peace" which it is not....

Best monologue ever

"Pragmatists and Idealists. And that most times, you are better off standing on the sidelines and letting them duke it out.

But every once and a while, one side or the other decides it might be better to just blow up the whole world just to get its own way. And when that happens, you can't stand on the sidelines anymore. You have to pick a team.And so for tonight, anyway, we are serving the King." Great speech, really :)

"On the other side you had the idealistic church forcing everyone to follow the same rules and believe the same things.

Neither the King nor the Church was ever completely right. Both sides ended up doing terrible things to get what they wanted. Really terrible things. The point of the story was this, that this struggle from the dark ages had been going on forever. That the church and the King might take on different forms and philosophies, but they would always fight each other."

"I remember once hearing a speech about what it meant to be an officer of the CIA. And the man who gave this speech talked about the struggle to control civilization and how we are always fighting the same fight. And he used the dark ages as an example.He talked about how one side you had the pragmatic King who was greedy and power hungry and basically took advatange of people whenever he could. "
