[quote name="Senor Barborito MetaFilter Post"]<i>Ryvar, either be a man and apologize for your mistakes, or focus your attentions on other topics.</i> You were wrong about the basic fact at hand - the age at which he was pressed into service of Nazi Germany. Splitting hairs about what the name of the specific subdivision he was in does not magically make you right. Nor will it make your statement that a child could choose to die for a cause he doesn't understand less disgusting. I'd ask for your apology again, but you won't ever admit that you're wrong, so what would be the point? <i>Or is dying for one's beliefs what is asked of someone else within a religious corporationorganization?</i> Of course it is. That's yet another reason why religion is a pile of shit. Why do you seem to assume that I in any way supporting religion? I am simply saying that within the context of Ratzinger's belief system his response was correct, because the scripture that his religion is supposedly drawn from states that it was. I don't really give one way or the other whether women become priests or not, because it seems illogical for me to support what I see as a celebration of ignorance. My only other point this entire conversation was that if one is to believe in the Christian God once must accept Biblical inerrancy, which I knew wouldn't be a popular one. posted by Ryvar at 11:55 AM PST on July 27 [/quote]
