l0rdtr3k: You know I'm just messing with you,right?
Of course I do. What makes you think I was taking it all seriously? :-)
GhostwriterDoF: Oh I know you're working hard these days, (and weeks).
And yes, those Europeans can be "sensitive" when talking about their historical events... :P
The twisting of history for political and propaganda purposes floating about in this age is in some ways a form of "modern myth", but will have to endure the test of scrutiny over time to become Legend... I'm looking forward to someday hearing anything you would like to share about things I might not have learned about through my own explorations of history (either in the Thread or through Chat).
Europeans? I was thinking of somewhere further away. :-)
Sadly I am not just talking about said nation twisting things for political and propaganda purposes, it was also done for greed, arrogance, and ego. Sadly so many people now believe these, well, lies, that it's hard to ever try to show a different prospective. Generally they are blinded by a mixture of arrogance, ignorance, or are simply misled or ill-educated.
I did think about sharing some random facts each day, just a little short fact that I noticed from some of the books. Maybe that would be a good way to start, similar to when I used to start each day with a quote.
Soccorro: DDickonson's Suggestion, not ours :D
“God hath given you one face, and you make yourself another.”
It is not very becoming of man to lie, and for him to try to besmirch the reputation of a lady. :-)
madth3: I should've known.
*sigh*
I would hope that you are smart enough to see past all these lies? If I had intended to talk about bondage, then I would have come straight out and said it, not tried to hide it behind something else. Instead, those dirty minded boys twist things and make everything dirty.
So how are you, are you having a nice day?
