Like how?


Remember the criticisms of the ME3 ending?

"Why don't the Reapers just kill the evil synthetics and leave organics alone?"

The same is probably to be said here.

"Why not just deal with the people who are evil and leave the innocents alone?"



This nation is controlled by the player who was once Neo-Ixania on the Jolt Forums! It is also undergoing reconstruction.

I remember in Bible school, our Sunday school teacher would sometimes show us artwork when she told us a particular story. There was one picture with the Ark sailing away, and in the water, there was hand holding a baby up over the water.

So children are 'irrevocably evil'? :eyebrow:
This is why your morality fails.



Nidea is arguing that wrong. God want's whats best for everyone, but understands what's best for Humanity as a whole, may have to trump that. Kind of like Doctors, doing triage.

Pope Urban wrote:Accordingly undertake this journey for the remission of your sins, with the assurance of the imperishable glory of the Kingdom of Heaven.


Is that not condoning it?

That was warfare against the Moslems to take back the Holy Land. Murder was never advocated, and though regrettable events did occur during the Crusades, those were condemned.

Have you not studied Hitler's book? Do you really think he just decided "Oh, well, Jews are okay now, they just need to be moved". No. The plan was always to kill them, at one point or another. The Madagascar Plan was simply a proposal.

The irony is that the Nazis weren't even the first to suggest it. There were proposals for it as early as 1885.
