Liberals built western civilization

[ScienceRocks]

<div class="bbWrapper">Liberals built western civilization all the way back in Ancient Athens, Roman empire through modern times through humanist concepts of critical thought and ever questioning of the world around us.... Think about it! Conservatives have always wanted the barons and the elite to have it all but liberals fought and demanded a voice for the little guy and most of these ideas came out of the college. The college is the greatest defender of human knowledge and freedom that we have.<br /> <br /> Conservatives that want to cut science, education and give it all to the rich of course are once again against the college and attacking the concept of equal rights.

We&#039;d look like Africa.<br /> <br /> Of course, the great Arab civilizations of the 8th through 10th century had a lot to do with the formation of the college and recording the knowledge that western civilization enjoyed during Greek and Roman times....But, what happened to them? What happened to them? Religion extremism and hatred of the concepts above happened to them and they become savages that we&#039;re dealing with today. Just like the Goths that saked Rome that hated civilization and the very same concepts a few centuries earlier.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Haha, no they didn&#039;t.<br /> <br /> For example, Rome was a Republic, Greece was a democracy. The first settlers to come here to America, the Pilgrims, were Christians escaping the dogmatic and ungodly oppressive practices of the Church of England.<br /> <br /> So I repeat, Liberals DID NOT build western civilization. It is totally dishonest to say so.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Liberals need to get new idols..... even their beloved Gandhi was a racist, for gun rights... Che Guevara a racist..... Darwin a racist....Abraham Lincoln a racist.... Franklin Roosevelt a racist.....<br /> <br /> I guess it&#039;s back to the Liberal drawing board... LOLOL</div>

 

[SobieskiSavedEurope]

<div class="bbWrapper">Most of the greatest men in history were Racist... Nazi Wernher Von Braun put a man on the Moon.... Racist Darwin who formulated Evolution thought the Fuegian Natives were savages comparable to Animals..... Thomas Edison featured Racist film reels. and invented numerous things... Nikola Tesla talked about getting rid of the savages of Earth., and was perhaps the best inventor........<br /> <br /> Now we have Millennials, and Generation X a bunch of anti-Racists.... Who have done very little in comparison.... to the great Racists.</div>
