1. This month's Time magazine is on the spotlights due to its cover. By chance (or not), the edges of the "M" do some kind of satanic horns over the Pope's miter:



    I have to admit that it's funny, to say the least ...

    Just figured, he reminds me of Jonathan Pryce, i.e. Elliot Carver in Tomorrow Never Dies.

    One hopes the comparisons end there haha.

    On an unrelated note, this is more general philosophical musing that politics per se, but wouldn't it be nice if everyone was just nice to each other for a change (slight paraphrase of Douglas Adams but the man had a point, methinks)?

    Say, no more killing, no more hatred, no more general hatred towards each other, that'd be a nice change.

    Yes, horrendously utopian; yes, trying to undo thousands of years of humanity's obsession with self-destructive compulsions, but sod it, hope is as hope does, eh?

    (said musings have been on my mind of late)

    I'm saying its unintentional. People look for hidden messages to much.

    Not happening bro.
  5. Random musing of the day. Most find the holocaust, to be the biggest war crime of World War 2. I find this to be much more disturbing, even if there where far less deaths.

  6. Yeah similar things were done by Nazis, disgusting what mankind is capable of. To make it more morbid, the information gathered is still valueable in medicine.

    I guess it's not all bad then. At least some good came of it.

  8. I would rather face a thousand honest death threats, than have one person pretend to respect my views, who does not. Hate is part of the human experience. To try to deny it is how utopia future gone wrong sci-fi novels start.

  9. Most (if not alll) of that horrendous stuff happened in a bigger extent in mainland Europe, mostly by the Nazis. And it's better docummented, not only based on testimonies after many years. Anyway, it's disgusting, repulsive and despicable.

    By the way, what do you think of the United States giving immunity to those monsters, only to get hold of their revolving knowledge? Equally despicable in my opinion.
  10. Russians did it to bro. Remember, the space programs of both countries, where almost entirely originally made up of Nazis. Remember as Chris pointed out, while the methods where despicable, German, and Japanese war crimes did yield alot of usable information.
