Are people really that dumb?

magnum by magnum · Oct 24, 2002 · News · 189 views

I dunno it boggles my mind but i tend to believe that at least 50% of world population is completely stupid and ignorant to things. Take this statement for example:

"If the snipers didn't have violence in their life, I don't think they'd be as violent as they are. I agree wholeheartedly with Wal-Mart in taking the video games off. And I think they should stay off," said Bobbie Harkey, a Tierrasanta resident and Wal-Mart customer."

From this article about Walmart pulling violent games from shelves.

Its amazing they can try to blame a video game which millions of people play but yet somehow dont go out in street and shoot people with rifles for the heck of it. Well cept for those few deranged people but they usually have severe mentall issues so they dont count :). But People blame this instead of say THE US ARMY who trains snipers to kill others with no regard, and looky here it turns out the alleged sniper was in the army, hmm has to be the video games though! They gave him the training and knowledge how to aim and to be accurate. Yep! Whats worse is people believe this because a politician or some so called expert says this is the case. Personally i think its funny how weak minded people are and dont bother to see the real facts of things but take whatever the media churns up that the powers that be tell them what the public supposed to believe. Ok im goin off into more topics but anyway people need to stop being dumb :)

Side not also is Russia seems 700 people are held hostage by chechen rebels intent on suicide mission. To me thats litle more important then some guy with a rifle, ahh prioritys of news storys!

sorry, joe, i just saw the news article this morning, and i figured i would write something on it. I do agree that that whole thing going on in Russia was much worse!

magnum magnumOG 2001

no you dont you liar! YOU HATER OF RUSSIANS YOU! :P

reaf reafOG 2002

This is the first time im reading all this jazz that is going down in russia, I a heard a little this morn, but harldy anything. Thats crazy...

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

Seems that all the coutnries of the former soviet union (last king of the North as prophesied by Daniel, btw) are having mucho problems nowadays. It's been ten years of awful consequences of the worst known human government to date.

magnum magnumOG 2001

erm i dont think they really count as king of the north, there is to be only 1 you cant have like 5 different king of the norths.

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

no no no, i was aying that the former soviet union was the former king of the north. not implying that any of these countries would be the next one.

magnum magnumOG 2001

what im implying is that russia is no more king of north then jamaica is former king of the north, they were thought to be but really werent.

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

um, hello, the soviet bloc of nations was former king of the north. I hope you studied your Daniel's prophecy book. But that soviet bloc of nations has hence disbanded and no longer represents the king of the north just as Antiochus the second is no longer king of the north.

magnum magnumOG 2001

hi there, all im saying is when we find out who the real king of the north is no one will say hey remember the fake king of the north who we thought was the real one, russia. No they will say "...." was the king of the north!

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

how was russia the "fake" king of the north???? The Soviet Union was the king of the north at one time, the "real" king of the north at that time. The new king of the north has yet to arise and be odentified. How is the Soviet Union a "fake" king of the north??? The king of the north has changed identities many times.

magnum magnumOG 2001

forget it

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

ok. I'm just confused about what you mean "fake" king of the north. Never heard that before.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ekulu

Yeah I don't get the fake thing either.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 thatdarngirl

YO I HAVE TO SAY THIS IS THE FUNNIEST EZABEL THREAD EVER!!!! THe FAKE KING OF THE NORTH!! HAHAHAHAHAH SOMEONE SAVE THIS!

magnum magnumOG 2001 skaorsk8

bleh all i gotta say is, all i care about who is the present king of north/south, maybe fake was the wrong term but i can care less bout the previous ones! DIE DIE DIE!

I gotcha joe... it makes sense, no one cares about that anyways, what does the OLD king of the north mean to us anyways? On top of it all, why waste time trying to figure out who it will be... we will find out when Jehovah lets us know...

ekulu ekuluOG 2002 rocksupastar

well it is impotant to know who the old king of the north is to see that the prophesy is fulfilled and all. All i was saying was that those countries that were part of the fprmer soviet union, which includes afghanistan, have been having major problems trying to have peace. Thus we see the wful scar left by the soviet union, one of the worst govt's to date, beisdes maybe fascist spain and Nazi germany. But even hitler's gvernment didt leave scars this far reaching

magnum magnumOG 2001 ekulu

bleh, lets just have a king of the north welcoming party and maybe it will show up

ekulu ekuluOG 2002 magnum

ill buy the horse doovers

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 rocksupastar

It's actually very important to know about the past, especially biblical past. Why else would the bible be so big? Jehovah could have had just a few pages explaining what we should and shouldn't do but he knows the important of history and of examples.

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder thatdarngirl

No no, you misunderstood, unless III misunderstood, which is entirely possible being that i am sick and on TONS of medicine, but, i thought you were saying how nobody was sure what the old king of the north WAS... but hey.. whatever, im just gonna shutup...

sux2beme sux2bemeOG 2002

if you're like me, you may have thought that the kings of the north and south were just two kings; and that our understanding of who each of them are have changed throughout the years. what i learned from the daniel's prophecy book (and what i think adam is trying to say) is that we now understand there to be different countries/kings/rulers who were the kings of the north and south at different times throughout the ages. that's why there are charts in the daniel's prophecy book that identify who each king was, which verse describes them, and when the transitions took place. and, of course, it is important to know about these things.

This article takes a surprisingly political twist for an ezabel story. I don't like the controversy.

beachbum beachbumOG 2002

This whole world has gone insane

delliott101 delliott101OG 2002

People have been blaming video games for the increase in violence since the days of Atari... Sure, certain games are not good to play and are extremely violent, but you can't just pin that on video games...

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

Since the days our forefathers fell asleep in death, things have continued the same as they were

delliott101 delliott101OG 2002

Ha ha... good! I like that...
