DEATH TOLL FROM THE SLAVE TRADE
"Killed during the transatlantic slave trade varies anywhere between 6-150 million (just crossing the Atlantic)." (source: website above.
Clara Tea's opinion: Freedom, justice, slavery?
Freedom and justice (I know, I read the sign outside of the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba torture camp). President W. Bush was elected leader of the Religious Right, and he was "fightin' the Axis of Evil" and issued orange alerts (to scare us into more wars).
Democrats help the poor for social justice, but end up helping the economy. W. Bush outsourced factories overseas to take advantage of cheap foreign labor, but that caused the manufacturing hubs of the US (Detroil, and the whole state of Ohio) to turn into crime-ridden ghost towns.

Christians are shocked that I blaspheme Jesus (and Christ, and God) by suggesting that perhaps Catholic priests should stop raping little boys. I suppose that they think that raping little boys is part of their faith. It isn't.

The assertion of evolution isn't blaspheme, it is science (it has to do with intent).
Evolution is not a personal attack, but an explanation of how we (everyone) came to be.
It is an alternate explanation to creationism.
The Pythagorean Theorem seems amazing to those who don't fully understand it. However, if we form a triangle out of three squares, it becomes obvious how the Pythagorean theorem works.
The Cancel Culture wants to make sure that we know that we are free to express any opinion that we want, as long as it agrees with their opinions.
Many forums tame original thinkers. They end up talking about sewing or cooking, because they will be kicked out otherwise.

"I set myself on fire against the falling night."
"You are the sun, You are the moon."
The sun and the moon dominate the sky, so it makes sense to worship them, or anthropomorphize them in romantic poems.
So, it stands to reason that whole...
