Good bye freedom of expression

[OutlanderWarrior]

Quite frankly, you make yourself seem very ignorant. Suppression of speech has been around since time immemorial and predates Christianity by so many years that it's fruitless to even try to count them. This is because people have never liked being criticized, especially when it could jeopardize their power. Thus, powerful entities have always engaged in censorship. It is the norm in the world, not the exception. Wise up.

Thank you for supporting my ideea. The point of the video is to show the bad influence of religion. You say powerful people are to be blamed. And religion is their tool to keep people under control. Thank you. That's what I'm trying to tell people. Religion has nothing to do with god but with the leaders. And God gets the kick out the people's missery... if she even exists.

No, I neither supported your thesis nor blamed powerful people. Rather, it's man's nature that is to blame. I recommend that you study some good philosophy (read G.K. Chesterton) before expounding upon things that you truly don't understand.

LOL GK Chesterton is the only thing you recommend me as "good philosophy"? No Nietzche, no Ingersoll?

The man's nature to blame is what made him create the story of original sin, then? Since is in man's nature to blame we can "blame" the story of original sin on this "theory", right?

Does it hurt when you shoot yourself in the foot the second time? :)

Well, it's pretty hard to respond to you since you expressed yourself so poorly. I assume English isn't your native language, but if you wish to be understood, you'll have to put a little more effort into making your point. Anyway, all I can tell you is that the only thing I shot was your argument full of holes. I never mentioned Original Sin; I simply stated a fact, which is that it's in man's nature to impose values. As for Nietzsche (that's how it's spelled), he was a minor thinker.

If Allah is all powerful, what have Muslims (or any other religious group) to fear from words?

My theory is that the "priests" in high places (in all realigions) know they teach bullshit. So they know that a non-existent being has no power. That's why censorship is a tool they like.
