One thing you do not see, Nazi, is atheist sects fighting one another.
Okay folks - we have a "Godwin" ; thread closed.
Godwin some kind of Neocon apologist?
I'll post the explanation though I think you fully understand it & are
just having fun with your reply.
Godwin's law (also Godwin's rule of Nazi analogies) is an adage in
Internet culture that was originated by Mike Godwin in 1990. The law
states that:
As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a
comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1.
There is a tradition in many Usenet newsgroups that once such a
comparison is made, the thread is over, and whoever mentioned the
Nazis has automatically lost whatever argument was in progress.
Godwin's law thus practically guarantees the existence of an upper
bound on thread length in those groups. Many people understand
Godwin's law to mean this, although (as is clear from the statement of
the law above) this is not the original formulation.
