Hate is in America's DNA and that goes back to the Colonies and the Black codes which were a set of law used to divide the races. religions caused more deaths than anything ... PHAHAHAHAHAHA! No. Not by a looooooooong shot. Especially since you have no way to prove or verify such a statement or weight it against the number of lives improved. Let me break it to you. Hatred has been part of humanity since the beginning, it's was almost certainly part of whatever species preceded humanity, it will proceed to be part of humanity, and nothing will ever change all that. It's also incredibly important to remember that things we see as acceptable, good, normal, or anything else simply were not, have not, and will not be the same in any other time. You go back in time and you'll find plenty of people who didn't harbor an ounce of ill-will towards a race doing things we'd consider racist today. Likewise, go into the future even a decade and you'll find people upset that we thought and did things they consider amoral while debating morality we'd never even think about. Thinking humanity can be some peaceful, loving, species once we get rid of the evil racist and hateful people with old and outdated beliefs is a dream that will never exist. Especially since you will, one day, be the 'ist' and hateful old person with outdated beliefs. Edit: For the record, if you want a real candidate for 'killed more people than anything' you should be looking at disease, politics, and classism/communism. Even that's impossible to verify simply because there's no way to truly notorize or quantify such things. --- I am the gentle hand who heals, the happy smile who shields, and the foot that will kick your *! - White Mage <cite>Unbridled9 posted [p:925472973] in "Mayb...
