I can Godwin ANYTHING (I'vs been known to Godwin: Disney, France, Domino's Pizza, landscapers, the Discovery Channel, The History Channel, AIM, and Nike). You're taking this too seriously.
I'm not your antagonist. My goal in this thread is not to win, but to uncover truth. If I was wrong, then I will admit it. As a matter of fact, I did!

I realize that this is a topic near and dear to your heart, but it is also jut a topic at the end of the day. I don't have my PhD in philosophy, history, or religion. I don't even have my masters (yet). I'm here to learn, specifically from people who know more than I do about stuff. Likewise, I hope you are able to keep and open mind and take in other peoples opinions and facts (without saying my ass"). If I'm wrong, which I was, I will make the necessary concession and become better by it. It is a lot more difficult to make such a concession when the person who is teaching you is also treating you like crap.
