Debate: Atheists, like Hitler, should be separated from the rest of the human race
Side: Absolutely

once again trying to match anarcho-capitalism with Capitalism.So when it's capitalism you don't like, it's anarcho-capitalism, when you like it, it's capitalism.This reminds me of two parents fighting over a troublemaking son "well look what your son did! MY son?! He's YOUR son!"Capitalism would have safety regulations (such as clean shit and no false advertising) as a means to end deception, keep people physically safe and abide by contract. This is called law enforcement and is not the same as Socialist regulation.Right. This is what we have now, barely, since corporations still exert huge political pressure (but forgetting that we still have what you just described).Socialist regulation entitles the government to control how a business is operated. Be it worker's rights, wage, anti-trust laws, etc.Sounds fair to me.And monopolies and sweat shops are not proof that a free market doesn't work...They are the end products of a free market. No restraints means someone is going to exploit his workers and buy out competition.

1. You're still forgetting that Capitalism doesn't equate Anarcho-Capitalism... like talking to a wall.2. We also have massive government control over private property, the enforcement of labor unions, and the idea that somehow businesses that are striving to be the best should be REGULATED by the government. It takes away the very ideal of competition. I do not mind massive tax breaks for small businesses (which is another thing that government has done the OPPOSITE of), but punishing a business for doing a good job seems... idk, illogical.3. And yes, people will exploit their workers. And workers can quit if they want to. As I pointed out, there should be safety regulations to prevent physical issues, and small children shouldn't work around dangerous equipment, but somehow stretching that out to basic Union rights, minimum wage, and Affirmative Action is fascist (i would say Socialist, but that would entitle Government Control, which is something that government does as well, but not in the case of government regulation. regulation isn't control, so we have both Fascism and Socialism... holy shit).

That reason is: allowing companies, people and athletes free run under the banner of competition always leads to cheating, corruption, and abuse of power. Businesses are in the position to hold lots of money, which means that they have more power than the average citizen when it comes to politics. Do you see where I'm going with this? Unregulated businesses will make deals with governments for special favours. This leads to more corruption.3. And yes, people will exploit their workers. And workers can quit if they want to.

Fascism is a type of government which puts the needs of the state way above the needs of the citizen. Seeing as regulations are for the benefit of citizens... do you see the contradiction? Socialism is government ownership of businesses in order to control wages and distribution of wealth so that it reflects a more "fair" distribution (where "fair" varies from government to government).Do you know why union rights had to exist in the first place? Hundreds of years ago when we actually had free markets, there was an industrial revolution. Workers lost power over their employers and could be forced to work long hours for minimal pay, with no benefits or healthcare or safe conditions. Then workers tried to band together to pressure employers to stop this, but early on union formation suffered heavy punishment, death actually.But hey, this is all about those poor companies that are so oppressed by laws which don't let them dole out a dollar an hour for heavy work in bad work conditions. Companies should be able to pay what they want, hire only white men, and be able to fire employees for no reason at all, with no benefits.If you aren't catching it, I really hate dumb statements and arguments, and your "#3" took the cake for me today.

I wish I had a scanner because there is this great graph in my Econ textbook which shows the U.S. growth rate from about the last 200 years. I can't find a similar graph online, but if you want an idea of what it looks like imagine someone drawing peaks and valleys around a middle line, and as they move toward the present the peaks and valleys become less extreme. What the graph is meant to show is how more recent monetary and fiscal policy (mostly based on Keynsian theory) has had a "smoothing" affect on GDP growth. What this means is, in the last half of the century we have had fewer, and shorter recessions and longer periods of sustained growth (especially in the last 30 years). A part of this has to do with increased regulations on the market. Obviously we should allow the market to operate freely in most cases, but there are areas where regulation is necessary, because financial institutions often times will take risks. Often times these risks end up having negative consequences on the economy as a whole, causing the volatile changes in GDP and rises in unemployment characteristic of the pre-Keynsian economy.Here is a point I feel like I need to make very clear:No one is advocating socialismSocialism sucks: not only does it severely limit freedom, it doesn't work. The only redeeming quality is that it promotes equality, but the result would only be a society where everyone is equally poor.What I and others like myself are advocating is a mostly free economy with some necessary regulations to protect against serious economic downturns.I don't have a problem with your point of view: I can understand and respect it. What I don have a problem with is the fact that you right off those who disagree with you as somehow delusional. I promise that I have good reasons for the opinions I hold whether you want to believe it or not.But that doesn't matter, just right me off as an elitist lefty liberal who has no idea what he's talking about.

what regulations are you referring to? I've already pointed out the regulations that I find acceptable...read more, pleez.
Debate: Atheists, like Hitler, should be separated from the rest of the human race
Side: Absolutely

I assumed that you supported laws against sweatshops and child labor, and this wasn't to what I was referring. These laws, though necessary from an ethical standpoint, don't necessarily help the economy.What I am talking about is regulation of financial institutions, and an active counter-cyclical fiscal policy.

...Well, I doubt that you actually support this, Joe, because it's obviously a horrible idea, so I'll argue the other points in the description. First of all, there have been plenty of wars waged by religious people. I seem to recall a hundred year long war taking place among pretty religious people. And what about the crusades? PEOPLE, not ATHEISTS, are capable of atrocities. Atheism is not the problem. Tell me how many atheists have made wars, and I'm pretty sure I can show you at least an equal number of religious people who have done the same thing. Also, how are "atheists" using up resources making war weaponry? The US makes weapons, and it is a country probably made up of more Christians than anyone else(I haven't looked at any statistics lately, but it's clear that we are not anything close to a nation solely of atheists). Of course, this is Joe I'm talking to, so it's definitely a possibility that you're being sarcastic/mocking someone elses arguments about religious people/trying to piss people off. x] Is there some similar debate that I haven't seen regarding religious people? 'Cause this kind of sounds like a response to attacks on religious people, but I could be wrong.

A true atheist is a person who respects other people's opinions. Guess what would happen if the whole world were like that?
Debate: Atheists, like Hitler, should be separated from the rest of the human race
Side: Absolutely not

You point out how many, many atheists have caused battles and deaths. What about terrorists? Everything they do is based around their religion. What about the Crusades? Hundreds of unneccessary wars have been fought over who's god is the real god and other such nonsense. Certainly more wars have been started by them then by atheists. Also, Hitler didn't decide to commit mass homocide because he was atheist, he did it because he thought it was the right thing to do. On the other hand, most religious battles were CLEARLY fought because of people's different religions. Very few wars are started due to LACK of religion. Look at all wars that are currently being fought. Hmm. They are all either wars over religion or over something else which is completely unrelated religion or atheism. I don't see any wars because of atheism. Religion instead appears to be the leading cause.

Hitler was not an atheist you dumbass! He was Roman catholic. Typical conservative distorting facts to suit their purposes.
Debate: Atheists, like Hitler, should be separated from the rest of the human race
Side: Absolutely not

Coming from a Christian Liberal, no. I should also like to note that Hitler was Conservative... National Socialism was not his idea, it was a name he took and corrupted even further than it already was. Either way, politics isn't even the point here. The point is, no group is entirely wrong or entirely useless. I'm a firm believer that it takes all kinds (and any self-respecting Conservative, Liberal, Believer, or Atheist should hold that view) and that everyone has something to offer this world. Even then, anyone who wants to eradicate the opposition as opposed to turning them to your opinion has it wrong.

Hitler was catholic. Seems like most religious people don't know their history as well as the fact that religion is the cause of most wars. Not Atheism.

Side: Small footnote

I want this argument at zero points, seeing how I take neither side.Hitler in PUBLIC STATEMENTS says that Christ is highly important to Germany.However of note, in private he states that he was not really attached to the church even though he did attend.So it differs on your definition on religious if he was an atheist.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler's_religious_views In the political relations with the churches in Germany however, Hitler readily adopted a strategy "that suited his immediate political purposes".[331] Hitler had a general plan, even before the rise of the Nazis to power, to destroy Christianity within the Reich.[334][335][336] The leader of the Hitler Youth stated "the destruction of Christianity was explicitly recognized as a purpose of the National Socialist movement" from the start, but "considerations of expedience made it impossible" publicly to express this extreme position.[334] His intention was to wait until the war was over to destroy the influence of Christianity.[329]Author Konrad Heiden has quoted Hitler as stating, "We do not want any other god than Germany itself. It is essential to have fanatical faith and hope and love in and for Germany."[28]

Even if I were to indulge, that any of these statements were accurate or a representation of Hitler's actual views, considering that some of his private statements are entirely made up...Hitler speaks for example....where in any of this, anywhere is there evidence that Hitler was an atheist?The entirety of your argument rests upon a false dichotomy, if Hitler doesn't like the christian church that de facto makes him an atheist...sorry, it doesn't work that way....this argument was fallacious from the beginning.Goebbels noted in 1939 that Hitler was "deeply religious" (albeit "profoundly anti-Christian"). According to Richard Steigmann-Gall, "No matter how much he vituperated against Christianity or the churches, Hitler gave no indication that he was now agnostic or atheistic: He displayed a continued attachment to a belief in God."http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitler's_Table_Talk

OK, so you'll believe that Obama was born in Hawaii without any valid proof but you wont believe Hitler was an atheist without any valid proof. Although I don't see how religious he could possibly be if he goes around committing mass murder ;)

OK, so you'll believe that Obama was born in Hawaii without any valid proofWe do have proof that Obama was born in Hawaii. We have a birth certificate, a birth announcement in a local newspaper, confirmation for the hospital staff, confirmation from department records, and the word of his mother, whereas all we have to the contrary is a bunch of right-wing kooks who think that anybody with a funny name must be foreign, and a forged Kenyan Birth certificate.you wont believe Hitler was an atheist without any valid proof.There is absolutely no evidence that Hitler was an atheist. Hitler is a highly polarizing figure and nobody wants one of the most infamous figures in history as part of their group, so they try to push him off onto a disliked minority group (ie atheists) despite the fact that there is no evidence to support such a connection.Although I don't see how religious he could possibly be if he goes around committing mass murderYou seem to hold this false understanding that "religious" means helping old ladies across the street. Many terrible things have been done in connection with religious dogma, by religious people, with religious beliefs. Many bad things have been done by people who think they are acting in accordance with "God's will". It's just an illusion, if only you could see it.

Hitler was not a practicing Roman Catholic - his ideas were not that which was tagught by Christ. He would be excommunicated for his ideas and actions. His actions were more in-line with atheism. Most wars nowadays are not done in the name of God but of Satan. Trying to explain to atheists what is the reason behind their wars is like atheists trying to explain the same to supposed religious people.

Most "wars" or genocide (Iraq, Afghanistan, Native Americans, Unborn Babies, etc. are not done in the name of God but in the name of Satan or man or atheism - really depends how much you care to put it in a spiritual context - obviously, if youre an atheist you will not chategorize yourself in a spiritual context and this is why all the above murderous activities do not get acknowledged; because you cannot put your finger on who this group of people/thinkers are.

The only practicing Catholic president of the US was Kennedy and look what they did to him. The rest were atheists/satanists. Here I would like to make the distinction - you can believe that there is no God/life after death whatever and not kill anyone or you can kill and either pretend to be athiest but really worship satan or just not know who you are really worshipping indirectly (Satan) and just go about your killing/power trip thinking that there is no God and claiming you are an atheist. For the latter, an atheist for sure but with that added sinister touch of satanism that you cannot recognize or refuse to as you do not believe in the supernatural.

I'm not sure how many of you really think that Hitler was an Atheist or Catholic or whatever, but if you would do your research before you post idiotic stuff like this, we would all be in a much better place. In different books and research studies, it shows for a fact that he was born to Catholic parents, but some say that he was Christian, and others say that he frown upon the Christian belief. You can't just automatically join together a belief with someone who is looked down on by a lot of people. Not all Atheists are bad. I, for one, love to do charity work because I love to see their smiling faces when I help make things that much easier for them. Wanting Atheists separated from the rest of the human race is like me saying that I want Christians separated because they believe in a false deity, and have no proof over all the "miracles" that occur in their lives. It would be best to just accept everyone as they are, and to see who they are underneath the religion and skin color.

Religion has caused war in the past, most of it, in fact.Atheists have yet to start a war with atheists because of atheism -> if Atheism could become a majority, religious wars wouldn't exist.

Since atheism is the absence of religion,Except it's not. It's a lack of belief in a god or gods. There are atheistic religions; where no deity is worshipped or recognized. all non-religious wars have been caused by a lack of belief in a religion.Highly improbable. A lack of belief of any sort cannot call for a war or a death, otherwise it'd be part of a belief.

But the majority generally do have religious beliefs.And the Islamic belief in reward after death by bombing people; it's not like terrorists would do it without the belief of that reward. Religion is also another big reason people get offended and butthurt over. Think about the conflict between Jews and Muslims.
