Hitler was another sociopathic butcher and the Germans got caught up in their militaristic culture. I am a German.

Heutzutage sind die meisten Deutschen sowieso eher Pazifisten. Schon komisch wie eine ganze Nation diese Vollumdrehung vollenden konnte, von Kriegshetzern zu Pazifisten. Oder?...

The only place where you will find a majority of athiests are probably countries like Demark, Sweden and a few other Scandanavian countries

Not quite correct, my friend: The Czech republic is an atheistic stronghold with less than 1/3 of the population admitting to any level of faith in a God. We learned that in connection with the recent Pope's visit.

As for Scandinavia, the deeper you get into the forests and smaller places away from the large cities in the South like Stockholm etc., the more religious people tend to be.
The Danes are more 'practical' and have little if any time to even think about religion.

Read Soren Kirkegaard, the great Dane, and get some interesting inputs about real faith.

It doesn't matter if there were loads of Russians secretly maintaining their faith during the Communist years .... the people running things and killing those tens of millions of people .... they were atheists. So your conjuring up phantom masses of secret Russian believers doesn't change the truth of what I posted.

Few people on earth are actually athiests. Anywhere. Most people everywhere beleive in gods or spirits or some other faith belief system. What their leaders say means little.

And you just refuse to acknowledge realities like that, you are so interested in proving your point even at the cost of facts and reality.


News flash. 1) Your opinions don't qualify as "facts and reality". Liberals make that mistake all the time. 2) What percentage of the world's people are atheist is irrelevant to the point I made ... that atheist run regimes have proven themselves to be history's biggest mass killers.

Now this is really funny:

You are so sloppy in your posting it makes me want to set my hair on fire-lol.

YOu remind me of Beck, Palin and Rush all of whom say the most outragous things which are seldom true.


In addition to outrageous you forgot to post the most important thing .... accurate! Let me repeat:

Atheists killed more people in the last century than all the religious people on earth did in the previous 2000 years.

You submit a paper like that to any school in the country and you will get an F.

When you make statements you must back them up with facts and logic.

I notice the left wing threads seldom do that.

Back up your claims with evidence.

Koan, > Few people on earth are actually athiests. Anywhere.

Josef Stalin, Adolf Hitler, Mso Tse-Tung, and Pol Pot were more anti-theist than anything. You would have to stretch logic to associate them with any religious movement.
