We killed Hitler, because he tried to overthrow the government.

Everything worked out for Hitler in our nation, so WWII involved Italy, Rumania, and Japan as Axis Powers. Hitler had a classroom block named after him in Munich.

Mackonia's WWII is still under construction, but I know Mackonian volunteers certainly fought (misguidedly) on the Axis side.

Mackonia's participation in WWI was a mixture of tragedy and triumph, the Mackonian Army and Navy were actually able to hold off the war weary Anglo-American invasion force but then Republican rebels seized the palace and forced the Kaiser to abdicate. This caused most of the general staff to commit suicide sending the army into disarray and leaving the slightly stunned putschists running a collapsing nation.

Auzkhia was obviously part of the Central Powers in WWI.

But, WWII was different because our Axis won.

That would be pretty neat. I would read that.
Honestly, so long as the words dragon and gay are involved in anything I would read it.

I don't really see any convincing evidence that Scripture is against homosexuality as far as the act is concerned. That is, of course, just one interpretation.

I also believe that the principal of "an eye for an eye" applies to eyes only, not to anything else.

Yes, but it depends on what it means by "like", you know.

A man can't lie in exactly the same way with a man as he does with a woman, unless he commits sodomy with her.

I believe that most of the Old Covenant was effectively voided during the Sermon on the Mount. I also believe that the Sermon on the Mount clearly states that only you can gain salvation for yourself and you must do good works out of pure altruism and not out of the expectation that you will be saved. Opposing homosexuality on a religious basis is completely pointless and accomplishes nothing useful for anyone.

I also kind of had the impression that when the ten commandments state that you should love thy neighbor then you really should love thy fucking neighbor. It can't be that hard to avoid being a jerk to people when it's in what some regard as their user manual to Living, can it?

Yes, of course. We are all equal in the eyes of God; we are all sinners.

I tend to be cynical about human nature, including my own nature because I am human.

If Christianity in Tödlichebujoku weren't supportive or neutral-leaning-toward-supportive of homos, churches and cathedrals would be burned and pillaged by conservative mobs.

There are matters left uncertain about Euro Britannia... To be frank, they're a satellite state created by self-righteous European descendants. We have no knowledge about how their society is, and how's the level of discrimination is against the Japanese; seeing that someone such as SHIN HYUGA, who still has an obvious Japanese name, could become GRAND MASTER.

Among many other things that I'd not like to talk about, which includes the level of slight melancholy and intensity associated with Akito the Exiled.
