Hi, lets just jump right into this. Ever since I could remember my father would always rant and go on and on about how my grandpa was a nazi. He would claim that back in WW2 he killed jews and was a terrible person, I never believed him since my grandpa was such a nice guy, and I figured my dad just had some kind of grudge against him so he made stuff up to put me against him. However... Unfortunately about a week ago my grandfather passed away, and I was at his house yesterday squaring away all his belongings and such to be taken back to my parents house.

They're a radical christian church. It's hereditary in structure, with the Phelps family forming the core of the group.
They believe God actively punishes America for its immorality. They draw a line between the acceptence of homosexuality and 9/11 and the deaths of soldiers. So they go to military funerals to protest, "God Hates Fags" and what not, because if America didn't embrace immorality, God would...

When you're right about everything, you've every right to flaunt it

Eh. Its not really about religion. They make their money through lawsuits against people who physically attack them during their protests.
I suppose if it was about religion they'd love they enemy or whatnot.
Also... If God hated America so much why is the quality of life so much higher that say religious Uganda with their eat da poo poo laws.

I think Buddhism is better. Jainism has too much of a focus on extreme ascetic practices.

>>1239503
Why?
You have a time traveling machine or some shit

Look at the rich robber barons of the time and what industry they controlled. That will probably let you tier them based on profitability.

Since the Ancient Greeks who were all over-manly fags.
