Are there any animals that portray any traditions or practices that cannot be trivialized to a mechanical purpose?

>"To be attached, to say 'I am a Buddhist', gets us not to see others and only ourselves, and we become boxed into a certain way of thinking."

Certainly, when Christians and Atheists hold on too tightly to their identity, they cannot see the other side objectively.

>"There seems to be conflict of religion, but really it is about the economy."

Understanding that throughout history, religious wars are about economic and terrestrial reasons, usually never about God.

>"We must respect the lives of humans beings"

We all fall asleep, we all do our best to "figure it out", so we can't just deny someone as less than a human being immediately, because they are Atheist, Muslim, Christian, etc. and instead we need to cultivate understanding of the beliefs of others

"Different people have different faith and we must respect that."

why didn't the anglos breed with the natives like the spanish and portos did? i mean think about it mexico and central/south america are continents of euro/native muts, but american colonists had a completely different outlook. what was the attitude behind this and would today be different if the anglos had just bred with the natives instead of being all semi-genocidal about it?

What is your opinion on David Irving?

He seems to have been an actual respected historian prior to going off the deep end and going full stormfront in the 1960s.

And now he's completely vilified by everybody.

I'm not a Holocaust denier by any means, but it is rather silly that nobody can express their opinion on it without being taken to court and slandered and blacklisted. It's like a self-fulfilling prophecy. Historian X says he believes the Holocaust is exaggerated. Subsequently, he's ridiculed and blacklisted by all major historical publishers. So when he goes to get a book on the topic published (hard enough to do since it's very hard to ask any kind of probing questions about the Holocaust in the areas it took place), the publisher declines and he has to go to a less-than-reputable publisher. And so when the book hits the market, all the historians scoff at it and point out that no reasonable publisher would take it, despite the fact that they were the ones that ensured that.

Again, not a Holocaust denier. But you'd be stupid if you thought that the Holocaust wasn't overplayed to hell for propaganda purposes following the war. There's a reason we don't hear some of the more ridiculous stories that were all the rave right after the war, like the lampshades made of skin or the hilariously infamous Holocaust-rollercoaster that led into an oven.
