What ever the reason (power, money, religion, political philosophy or what the fuck ever) just remember that the 'politicians' don't go to war, just your kids and maybe you. Need someone to feed the beast after all ..................

Religious Wars really didn't start getting kicked off until Constantine came in the picture in the 4th century. |

Here's why: The actual boots fighting on the ground, will fight harder and more ferociously for God. Than they will for low gas prices at the pump... Not saying war wouldn't happen if we didn't have religion/ideology, but it certainly would lose much, MUCH of its fervor... And yes, for all intents/purposes, communism pretty much can be characterized as a religion. |

pussy. it always comes down to pussy. View Quote I'm going with this. All the Haji's are always running around mad at the world because they don't get enough pussy. Well, female human pussy anyway, they might be getting plenty of goat pussy?? IDK. If they had more bikini's and Miller High Life over there, they'd cheer right the fuck up. And then look at Russia. You ever see a handsome Russian? Fuck no, you haven't. You just know those guys are under-fucked. |
