Argentina was never all that great to begin with.


Can never be a great country, especially if you have a smiley face on your flag.

And then, there is a guy I know who is a real douche, but no way that I ever doubted or questioned that he really exists.

Because misotheism is scary without atheism, and deism is weak tea theism.

I'd put the Imperium and Tau on similar level of "like" for me. Imperium is a little less cool IMO.

Except the Kriegers. Death Korps 4 lyfe.

Tau have dank aesthetic too. Farsight is cool.

That's a little Americentric.

Just do it in which side should have won, with shades of qualifications

These other historical polls are just not politically relevant enough, I feel. They feel too much like pure history debates, and not enough like political debates

I'd imagine a northen blowout.

Then again, I was dumb enough to include the Versailles option on this one.

Do the British Empire, do Lincoln's merits, do something that's politically controversial. Something that isn't innocuous to today. Maybe a poll on immigration policy.

We have the free will to reject Him, as you evidently do. Free will has never meant freedom from consequences. If you choose to reject God, you will be separated from Him. If you accept God, you will return to Him. I have no idea why you think the Kingdom of Heaven is communist or Orwellian. We know very little about Heaven, and it is likely it is beyond our present comprehension.

By 'reject God' do you mean that they are rejecting Christianity, or rejecting the existence of a deity? Because if you mean the later you are wrong. No matter how wrong I hold both positions - misotheism, in particular, which strikes me as supremely immature at the least - they both require the existence of deity.
