Anders Behring Breivik is a Illuminati-Freemason

violence tends to be part and parcel of authoritarian collectivist regimes. fascists, trotskyites, marxists, shining path, maoists, nazis, stalinists might have different names but the end results tend to be about the same

As the US is none of the above it explains why Americans are so peaceful and why American foreign policy is a hallmark of non-violence. :roll: However, I just can't seem to understand why last year or the year before more human beings on the planet were killed or wounded violently by American hands than by any other nation on earth.

Yeah America sucks.

in many countries you'd be shot or worse for bashing dear leader

The thing all those regimes share in common is that they're all authoritarian. Economically, they're all over the spectrum. You may be the exception to the rule, but conservatives tend to be a lot more authoritarian then liberals.

So, you're excusing the death we cause because other people are worse?

I disagree. "liberals" (reactionary statist is a better concept IMHO) are collectivists meaning they believe in subordinating individuals to the "common good" especially in economic terms and in many areas of "rights" (banning guns or restricting them even though 99% of gun owners never commit crimes)
Liberal authoritarianism is usually directed at those who have not done wrong or have not failed

conservative authoritarianism tends to be either in social areas (gay rights for the bible thumpers) or directed to those presumed to be wrong doers-be it those who are law breakers or who are seen as failures

I prefer a system that is hard on criminals and failures than one that punishes honest people and the successful
 
So, you're excusing the death we cause because other people are worse?

Nope, I believe in American Primacy and I don't tend be overly sensitive to American failures when the overall balance is in our favor vs countries that do little good and much bad
 
When I became a Mason I distinctly remember being asked if I were a Christian. The question in on the application.

And what branch? And yes there's a question asking if one is a Christian but it is not a pre requisite which is what you stated. I was simply asked if I believed in a higher being or power.
 
Pray they don't watch "C.S.I." in Norway. If they do, his jury will probably acquit him.

well dan white (the asswipe who murdered Harvey Milk and Mayor Moscone) used the twinkie defense to get a minor league sentence for two counts of capital murder

what will this guy use in Norway? the Sardine Defense? Post traumatic seal clubbing syndrome?

The Norwegians won't execute him anyway. They're too liberal. He'll be sentenced to life at a health spa, run by beautiful, naked, blond women.

Hmmmm. maybe the punishment will be they are lesbians

And people wonder why so much of the world does not like America. It's this American Exceptionalism BS that causes us to be disliked around the world. Seriously grow up, we are not better than other countries by virtue of being American. Most European countries have a much better standard of living than we do.

Don't care what most European countries have... most European country's have not dominated the economic landscape for a very long time. They had their time to be exceptional and it's been America's time now for a while... then it'll be someone elses time.
 
I thought it was more akin to the Boy Scouts in that one just needs to have a belief in God, but not necessarily be a Christian.

Yeah that's what I thought, it doesn't really seem to disprove that he is a fundamental Christian though. It isn't a type of Christianity to my knowledge.
 
George Washington was a Freemason
My Godfather is a free mason and a devout Episcopalian

lots of the Nazis claimed to be devout catholics or Lutherans

and of course Queen Isabella who sponsored the Inquisition was given title of DEFENDER OF THE FAITH by the Pope IIRC

My grandfather and great grandfather were both Freemasons, and my great grandfather had Communist ties too... I am not sure if he was a true Communist though, because he was from Yugoslavia and he died before I was born. :shrug:
 
This is NOT true.

Prerequisits to be a Mason:

* You must be a man of at least 21 years of age.
* You must be of good moral character and have 3 people willing to vouch for this character.
* You must believe in a surpreme being, a deity, not that the fraternity is a religion but that you have a steadfast belief in your faith.

My lodge has 2 Jews, a majority of Christians (Catholics and Protestants by the way) 1 Hindu. Not sure about the rest actually but there is NO Christianity requirement. Please don't talk out of school if you don't 100% know or are a mason. This is exactly what gives Masons a bad name when misinformation and bad information are relegated as fact by those who do not know.

Are there any women in your lodge? I always heard women can't join, but the pre regs didn't mention you had to be a man...

I heard he was associated with Rev Jim Jones...

Maybe you should go there and commit a crime then..
 
Saying Freemasonry has nothing to do with Christianity is like saying the Moose Lodge or the Rotary Club has nothing to do with Christianity. Of course it doesn't -- it's not a religion! Most Freemasons are Christians, but one has little to do with the other -- at least if you dwell in reality and don't embrace the idiotic claims about the Freemasons being a front for the Illuminati, which is either made up of Satanists or reptilian aliens, depending on which nutjob you listen to. Christians and conservatives don't approve of violence? Who was behind the Inquisition and the Crusades and witch burnings? Freemasons? Shriners? The Friars Club? Who dragged America to war in the middle east on the basis of lies? Liberals? Independents? In order to believe that Christians and conservatives don't approve of violence, you have to be completely untethered from reality.

Women are not formally part of the lodge, some are members of the Eastern Star, which are usually wives and or female members of masons, though I've never been to one of their meetings. The Eastern Star you can be a man or woman whereas (at least in my lodge) freemasons can only be male.

21 years, I think, is the max he'll receive.

Speak for yourself. on the balance sheet America has done far more good than bad. very few other major league nations can say that.

feel free to move there. and the richest europeans spend a lot of time here. I don't know any millionaires who spend a lot of time in say Estonia, or Bulgaria or Norway.

american commies and other far left loons hate America because its not communist or far left loony
