Subject: RE: BS: Jingoism or Commemoration
Teribums, you are right in that your knowledge of history is encyclopedic. Sadly, due to the nature of your seemingly tiny mind, this knowledge seems to have prevented the more human traits of imagination and compassion from flourishing. So what we end up with is a toy soldier who knows all about the subject of past wars but does not have the imagination or compassion how to use that knowledge to prevent it happening again. You and your pal can know as much about history as you like but none of you will ever rise to do anything with that knowledge. Fortunately.

I only claim that the history books agree my points.
I read them. That is how I know.


Come back when you can say that you have read them all. Shouldn't take you long.
