    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

      Ehr, oh, nah. As it's said, we don't call them danish pastries - just wiennese bread. I think we survive it.
      Well, we don't call sprouts, Brussel sprouts either, or Belgian Waffles (actually, we call them Brussel wafles, there's such a thing as Luikse wafles too ).

        Nah, trying to steal other countries islands has bad statistics - just look at what happend when argentina tried to take Falkland islands .
        With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

              IOW, Spiff wishes evil to Canada?

              If so, I rather sympathize.
              Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

                Just to be fair to them, they did invent religious fundamentalism.

                        Yes, but I don't think religious fundamentalism has been invented in Iran. I guess it's been invented some European or Arabic scholar during the middle ages.

                          Middle ages? Probably a long time before that, no?

                              No. Look at your tech tree for Civ 2. You can't have Fundamentalism until the modern era.

                                Fundamentalism strictu sensu was invented by 19th C Americans.

                                But you probably mean the loose modern use that's essentially = fanaticism. That's been along since long before the middle ages, and I much doubt it was invented by a scholar ...
