I can't believe Gen is still sane after all of this. First, the atomic bomb that destroys his city. Second, seeing everyone dead on the ground or zombies. Third, his hair falling out. Fourth, hunger. Fifth, almost his whole family died. Sixth, his little baby sister died...
World war II was the worst war up to date because it took a lot of lives at the clutches of Fascism/Nazism.
We had to create weapons of mass destruction like the atomic bomb and we havent used that for peace,and we have thousands of those useless junk,it's just scary and hard to believe.
Barefoot Gen was a great indictment of the Japanese. It's a survivor's unabashed view of the situation and culture. These people are cruel and inhuman without grace, leaving their kin to suffer and tormenting the kids. It was a great insight to the results of imperialism and propaganda and tyranny, as well as a lesson of kindness within hell on Earth.
Do not try to justify the taking of life. Whatever the reasons, what was done is done, and it is up to us to learn from the past. Nothing can recall life to the dead or erase the agony and misery that war brings. Please do not say 'I hate Americans' or 'The Japanese were stupid'. Do not lump an entire group of people together and hold them at fault for what a few power-mad politicians should be held accountable for. Eliminate politics and religion and you eliminate 90% of the 'reason' for war.
@piloto88ed You jackass, Japan killed way more 30 millions people than the 2-A-bombs. So who the jackass now? Heard of rape of nanking, unit 731, comfort women? Go look into those stuff before you talk.
I WANT TO KNOW WHO STARTED THIS CRAP, AND I WANT TO END IT. Scientists have no reason to butt in in what we believe. So, please: Keep you atheist selves away.
xD!! Shaken baby syndrome!! Hahaha!!! Oh god this movie is hilarious. The real event was sad/terrible yeah but this movie...oh god I keep laughing! Gen is so retarded lulz!!!
so that means that you were a parasite when you were a baby and you wouldnt mind if your parents just left you to die...damn i feel sorry for you...actually not really
oh, i don't believe in god either, not because of the reasons everyone says, but because i think that he was made up to stop people going mad, some people can deal with the FACT there is nothing after death, but on a mass scale there would be pandamonium, that is why some one ingeniously thought up 'god', to preserve sanity!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Still why dont you pray to god anyway? if he doesn't exist then no big deal! but if he does exist and you say that he doesn't...dude you could go to the place of fire and brimstone
that's why there's no god, how a "good" god would leave die inocent people and the evil ones lives more?, remember Pinochet! that chilean dictator died by a heart attack the last year afher he ordered to kill more of 1.000 people at the 70' and 80'!
SIMPLY DENAYING YOUR EXISTENCE,god created this complicated universe,he made most of things to go by his will,he created human and honored him by giving him brain and will,and he'se given us rules coz we're living in a world going by his rules,not all obey rules so he created heaven for good and hell for the bad and forgivness coz we're not complete,and he worn us. hell is so bad and that u can not imagine and heaven is so good that u can not imagine.
WHAT makes bodies to move,a man who was talking cann't talk anymore,what makes him alive.its the sole,which nobody understand,and u r living with it,how can we understand the Greater sole.take it easy drink some water:)and try talking to him ask him to guide you and u will see.
if it was a random universe,u'll find stones,dust,fire.u can say scientifically that this fire came from this stone hitting that stone,but u cant explain in science where did ur feelings came from,ur sence of good & bad
am not expecting anything,u said wat u beleived,i did too.can u plz guide me to a book so i can understand ur way of thinking,if u want to combine science with religion read "The Bible The Quran and Science" by a French physician "Maurice Bucaille"
thank you.....i will look it up......and it is not that i hate religion, its that i am sick of it,. i used to live in qatar, saudi arabia, but now i am back in scotland i am faced every day with ignorant ned-christians who are always talking about 'pakis' and how muslims should be killed.....i feel like smacking them!!!
Oh wow. I used to live in Quarrayah and Ive felt the exact same way since Ive moved back to the U.S. People every day talk about killing all muslims because they have no idea. They seriously believe that all muslims are terrorists and they are completely wrong. I also am simply sick of religion. I dont hate it but its kind of been lost in translation.
they think all muslims are same. maybe we should think all christians are same too including thos psyco killers and rapsists...but i wont do it cuz i know its not true but for those who think all muslims are the same....
It is, some astronomy scientists studied how galaxies are running and they were convinced that theres a single creator to the world system,look up what the scientists say from both sides Its better to study about these things before you create a decision and stick to it.talk once to god,you wont lose anything just between you and him,and as he said if you come to me by one step,Ill come to you by ten,but be sincere coz he doesnt need you.you need him.
@nadalele The thing is, Science has much more concrete evidences to backup all of its theories. Religion on the other hand, bases most things off faith. If their is evidence, it is usually very brief, inconclusive, not very clear, and irrational evidence.
Actually, yesterday I had a compromise at night (a meeting), and the water service was suspended all day (So I didnt took a bath until the night), and I was worried coz of it >(My appareance).
In the afternoon I was talking with a friend by SMS and recieved a strange Delivery Report "Theres no meeting" instead of " MSG sent" (I have delivery reports).
And I was like ò.ô .
I looked for it at my sent msgs, and it wasnt there...
@lettherightonein2 And I don't need to. It's not important in the least. I don't owe you proof of anything. You belive or you don't. You either have the strength of character to trust in something you can't prove, or you don't. You either know Him, or you don't. I don't have to /prove/ anything. I don't need proof, either. So.
@beautifulpassion I'm atheist, and I don't believe in God because I don't want to follow a being that wants me to change my lifestyle, but may or may not exist.
That being said, I don't know why most other Atheists feel the need to try and disprove God's existence, or challenge Christians for proof. I believe everyone should have the right to worship or not. You're right, you need faith to believe God.
Atheists always say they want Christians to leave them alone. Now leave Christians alone.
@Swimmisan I can't say I agree with your beliefs- or lack thereof- but that's your choice. Nothing I say is going to change your mind, and it's not right for me to try unless you specifically want to me to. I don't know why they do it, either, though I consider fear to be a strong motivator, and often just pure, selfish, nastiness. Thank you for your support, and I'm glad to see someone level headed for once. I agree with you; everyone has the right to worship or not.
@Edomaestro Your attitude is naive and silly, and sounds to me like you're fishing for reasons not to have faith.
If you knew anything about the topic you decide to so state 'facts' on, then you'd know precisly why God says he allows these things to occur. As humans, imperfect beings, we have free will. We make our choices. He is not going to act as a controlling dicator and FORCE us to be good.
