Persepolis is the poignant story of a young girl in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. It is through the eyes of precocious and outspoken nine year old Marjane that we see a people's hopes dashed as fundamentalists take power
- forcing the veil on women and imprisoning thousands. Clever and fearless, she outsmarts the "social guardians" and discovers punk, ABBA and Iron Maiden. Yet when her uncle is senselessly executed and as bombs fall around Tehran in the Iran/Iraq war, the daily fear that permeates life in Iran is palpable.
As she gets older, Marjane's boldness causes her parents to worry over her
continued safety. And so, at age fourteen, they make the difficult decision to send her to school in Austria. Vulnerable and alone in a strange land, she endures the typical ordeals of a teenager. In addition, Marjane has to combat being equated with the religious fundamentalism and extremism she fled her country to escape. Over time, she gains acceptance, and even experiences love, but after high school she finds herself alone and horribly homesick.
Though it means putting on the veil and living in a tyrannical society, Marjane decides to return to Iran to be close to her family. After a difficult period of adjustment, she enters art school and marries, all the while continuing to speak out against the hypocrisy she witnesses. At age 24, she realizes that while she is deeply Iranian, she cannot live in Iran. She then makes the heartbreaking decision to leave her homeland for France, optimistic about her future, shaped indelibly by her past.

Hitler WAS A CATHOLIC you fucking imbecile.
And atheism isn't a belief, it is a denial of belief. And since when is atheism responsible for all these mass murders? In fact, look at places like Africa and the Middle East, all destroyed in the name of Islam and Christianity. So yeah, suck a dick.

Hitler was as much catholic as i am an astronaut you kuppet.
And like i said. Atheism is an ideoligy you believe in. And those mass murderers slaughter everuone who disagreed with their view and beliefs. You can shout and curse all you want. But those are the facts. Atheists are the biggest mass murderers in modern history. Not a single religion comes even close to them

Hitler was a catholic you thick-skulled idiot.
Also, Atheism isn't a religion and neither is it a group, so you can't kill in the name of Atheism. And Stalin only killed religious people to keep them from forming groups and starting an uprising, not because he hated religion. Why don't you do more studying before making an ass of yourself. And what about ALL those killings that take place in Africa, the Pacific Islands, and the Middle East in the name of religion?

Well i am sorry if i offended you. That was not my goal. But i hste it when peolle play like the moral angel. Like you never say "shit". Whats wrong with that? Just because i am religous doesnt mean i cant say shit. We are all humans and we make mistakes and we have emotions. Btw..i never was angry...i just found it weird

Lol at hitler was catholic. Yeah right and im the pope.
And yes these men KILLED for their believe and ideoligy. They killed people who didnt want to follow their path. They killed for communism...nazism or any other ideoligy
Stalin massacred millions and millions relgious peopl in the Sovjet Union. Religous people were prosecuted and churches mosques and synagogues were being destroyed. Believing in God was forbidden by the atheist communists and it could mean your death sentense

I'm sure you know what I meant by that, unless you are a little inadequate in words of course and well I know you aren't perfect. And thank you for calling me a hypocrite, you no you could at least try to be as kind as you can be and not so easily let yourself be 'human' as you say, there's no need to say that, I didn't fight with you or insult your religion, if u took it wrongly that's your own mentality. What use is speaking so angrily on a video? It will only make people think you worse.

No its not true. You got brainwashed by atheist propaganda. Atheism have killed many more people then any religion. Look at my earlier comment downhere. And that was only 4 people i named in the recent modern history. But there are many many more atheist genociders

If we look at recent modern history we can see that all massmurderers and genociders were atheist sickos. Mao, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler all godless people. These 4 people have massacred and slaughterd more then any religion in history.
