Facts few people know huh, more "history's mysteries" fact finds by brumar?

Your appeal to Nazi exploitation of the ambiguity that seemed to be opened up in Darwin biology is no more accurate or different than any other religious racial persecution which so densely populates human history before Darwin. Based on that "science" of the time determined by such holy rollers like yourself.

You just dont see how whacked out you are do you?

run along and go play with the other feeble minded....

Wednesday, February 20, 2013 Killing baby Hitler I recently watched the movie Looper. It asks (essentially) whether we'd be willling to kill baby Hitler if we were able to travel back in time. While browsing thru some reviews and commentaries online, I noticed some secularists argue for killing baby Hitler. On the one hand, it's ironic how these secularists say stuff like they'd kill baby Hitler in a heartbeat in order to prevent the Holocaust, WWII, and other great evils, whereas on the topic of killing the Canaanites they'd hardly be so sanguine. But how do these same secularists know Canaanite babies weren't each ticking time-bomb baby Hitlers, so to speak? On the other hand, other secularists argue they would not kill baby Hitler. Here's one reason that's been given: Paradoxes abound. By killing Hitler then the likelihood that you would never have been born to get on the time machine in the first place would be quite high, and in my case the chances of my parents ever meeting would have been remote. To go back in time and kill Hitler would be to wipe out all those people alive today in which the war and its consequences were consistent with the appropriate sperm meeting the appropriate egg. A large chunk of humanity, I'd guess. Likewise: If I did so I wouldn't be here to go back in time and do it. My parents wouldn't have met if it hadn't been for WWII We are all the spawn of the misfortunes of yesteryear.
