What do you expect in a fascist country. America first to experiment with ugenics, it was built on slavery, it invades and murders people from Saigon to Iraq. The largest prison population in the world. More than Communist China, more than North Korea, more than Russia. There are kids being thrown in jail for smokin a joint. There's people in jail for smoking pot that have been in there since Clinton was president yet the average sentence for murder is 12 years. I'd say were a little fucked up.

@dookdawg214 My view and perspective on the definition of culture is far from narrow. Culture is a vast and varied subject. It is the arts and other manifestations of human intellectual achievement regarded collectively and should be treated with respect and understanding. I was only pointing out to you what a moron you were because you claimed that American fast food and 24 hour shopping qualified as a culture which is altogether laughable.

@tsunami770 No I call you dumb cause you're dumb.Example:You're asking me why I read the bible if not for history and I've said multuple times for spiritual enlightenment and personal developement.I communicate better when I'm not talk to people who're so adamant to profile they completely ignore relavent info at hand.

[algshan]

@tsunami770 Wrong idiot spiritual refers to morals,life lessons,ect.,making up definitions too I asume.There is only one truth,I follow as much of the truth as possible but nobody knows it all.You gave me verses that give orders to specific groups from the past not modern day christains remeber I said "all christains",smh.Listen dispshit I never said god was real nether did I ever claim to have proof of his exist I've actually said the exact oppposite of that statement,try reading.

[tsunami770]

@algshan Again... Spiritual means "that which is not perceived" so please define what you mean because to say spiritual enlightenment means nothing. Truth is obvious to all so which truth are you offering? Days ago I gave you the pages in which the bible instructs christians to act like barbarians and ever since then you have been locked on ad hominems. I asked for any proof or any argument that god is real b/c you claim to know truth and so far all I am eating is empty words... XD

[tsunami770]

@algshan You are calling me dumb and stupid because you have no better way of communicating. Because you are limited to cheap blows instead of making any decent arguments. Still waiting for one. Great you don't look at the bible for history so what do you look at it as or for then? what do you think it is? A collection of ramblings or what? Now the coincil of Nicea is not a biblical event, it is the way by which the bible came to be and you should study that regardless.

[algshan]

@tsunami770 I talk bible in the sense of spiritual enlightenment not one time did I say it was historically true in fact you only came up with that due to christian profiling.Where did the world come from?Idk not a scientist.Devine intervention?I didn't even bring that up,smfh.I believe in the truth,my secrets?Facts.My thiest intellect and logic is based on what is proven to be true,which is why everything I 've said about you is shown in your comments not made up in my head,EAT THAT!XD

[algshan]

@tsunami770 I'm calling you dumb,stupid,idiot,ect because I've said now more than THREE TIME I do not look at the bible for a history lesson!
