Best reason to start a war

[Godavari]

War should only be declared as retaliation against an attack. If destruction and human casualties can be avoided, they should.

 

[oneniesteledain]

How many of you who believe in war have actually joined the military to go fight?

 

[McNinja]

A good reason is to take over the world.

I would think this would be obvious.
Given a brief looking over history there are only three primary reasons for starting a war
1 - over your imaginary friend (god)
2 - because they look / act different than you (race)
3 - paper invoking the name of your imaginary friend on it (money)

the reasons become mushed and blurred by a million things, but that is basically the root of every war.

But the question was, Why would you start a war?

OT: I would start a war against anyone who is ignorant, hell even other Christians, Ignorance is most certainly not bliss. Other examples:

-Nazi's
-Rednecks
-Homophobes (Who hate homosexuals)
-Atheists who won't SHUT THE FUCK UP
-Any religious extremist group

That is the optimy of Bigotry. You would kill athiest who were adimant about their beliefs? Or just athiests that talked alot?

You would kill rednecks? Why, because they seem less educated or because of the cousin fucking stereotype?

And Religious Extremists? Like the bible belt christians? The Vatican? Orthodox Jews?

You would also kill the ignorant?

Ignorance is the lack of knowledge or information. I can understand killing people who are shown the information and openly regect it, but to kill people that never even got the memo?

No I would wage war on rednecks because most of them are backwoods bigots who hate, I would wage war on Atheists because they won't shut the fuck up about my religion when I'm perfectly fine with them being who they are. Lastly, I don't think you know what the term extremist means, I'm talking about a church of Christians who blame gays for everything or a group of Muslims who try to restrict all western influences.

No i am well aware of what an extremist is, i was just pointing out moderate extremists that every one seems so willing to accept.

And i love how you are willing to kill a person for him using his freedom of speech, even tho that freedom makes you uncomfortable. It almost sounds like you condone an Athiest Holocaust.

Though must believe in god or you die. And if you think along the lines of pushing your religion on people, i have been on buses where self proclaimed christian soldiers have made school kids cry because they were athiest. Aye, a double bladed sword we be playin with.

It sounds like you avoiding what I really said, I have never pushed my religion on anybody and to say so without even knowing me for 2 seconds is stupid. I like how all you can talk about is how I have supposedly done wrong doing all my life.

Now my friend, i never said you lived your life wrong. Only that you would start wars for the wrong reasons.

 

[Goldbling]

No, I never said all Atheists denounce my religion but a large part of them argue with me forever about it, thus I say Atheists WHO WON'T SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT IT.

So because some people argue with you, you would declare war on them?
What gives you the right?

Oh, hey! Look at me! I'm arguing with you!

Come on, declare war on me. DO IT--YOU WON'T!

I live in Texas

Wow, that explains pretty much every retarded thing you've said so far. Nice job!

all, and yes i mean ALL, rednecks hate black people or Mexicans so excuse me if you've meet different people.

All the rednecks in TEXAS might, but Texas was never exactly the brightest star on the flag, dig?

No extremism is a term used to describe the actions or ideologies of individuals or groups outside the perceived political center of a society or otherwise claimed to violate common moral standards.

Fail.

ex·trem·ism
n. Advocating or resorting to measures beyond the norm, especially in politics.

It says nothing about the ideology, but it does mention the measures.
In other words, it's not the ends that matter to extremism, but the means.

Now get the fuck out of my country, you idiotic hypocrite. Or better yet, start your little "war" so those of us who know what we're talking about can place bets on how fast you get blown away. $20 says you can't take out a single redneck.

I declare war on all douche bags, witch by the way, includes you.

Don't be so dim, Texas was always the brightest star and you know it. By the way you might want to think about how much of a douche you'll look like before you insult others intelligence and skill with a weapon.

and congratulations you know how to look up a numbed down description of what a word really means.

no more replies I'll let that eat away at your soul while you drown in you sorrows.

 

[shwnbob]

just for the hell of it.

 

[Pimp Sauce]

bad thread, there is absoluetly no reason to start a war

 

[Xrysthos]

At the moment wars are somewhat meaningless, but give it a few years and resources will be on the list of valid reasons. I'm guessing that in roughly 50 years someone will "find" weapons of mass destruction in Morocco, which now has some of the worlds largest untapped phosphorus-deposits.
