Breaking the Codes In Oslo Terrorist's Manifesto
repvik writes "The 1500-page manifesto of the terrorist who killed 77 people in Oslo and on Utøya two weeks ago contains a series of seemingly encrypted URLs. There are 46 of them, and the initial part of the URLs appear to be GPS coordinates. An effort to analyze the codes have been launched."
While I agree with much of your sentiment you must understand why you got modded down.
That said, I agree to the extent that Christians are no different from most other religions. Most religions are bad, and I'm actually 100% on board with one particular infringement of what many consider a human right that China has attempted to instigate, which is a banning of most forms of religion.
In reality I consider it another form of human right. The right not to be brainwashed in the name of "god" or "allah" or whoever else.
Its universal too. I've met some of the nicest christian people that were trying to start up a church and were actually doing some good for their community. However even they are so brainwashed into believing the rhetoric that while most of their moral code is fairly admirable, and they are admirable people in their own right.... they also say things like "We have to teach the children, we have to get to them while they're young." with a sort of complacency and sometimes even fervor that to be perfectly honest, frightens me.
If, in reality, any of these theories or systems of belief were any better than any other, there would be no need for all of the ceremony and pomp that goes around indoctrinating the children into the same system. Most of the children would eventually come to realize that it was just the right thing to do and end up believing the same.
Some of these Bible Camps in the southern and western US frighten the shit out of me. I saw a video documentary of one that was supposed to be promotional and except for a lack of AK-47s and better looking clothes it looked like one of those Islam child training camps that they put videos of on the news to frighten people with.
