I already know what an idiotic reason it is.
Why don't you post it here so everyone can see how idiotic it is?

more than 1 in 10 people in 1220 were killed. can you imagine living in a society in which 1 in 10 people were killed??? what would it be like living through that fear, how would that effect societies?
now think about living in a society in which 2 in every 100 people were killed....are you sure its worse?
Then you can ask yourself if you really think the smaller number is worse.

Originally posted by FMFAre they, I cannot say, they appear to me to be counter-productive, because we are emphasising the Kingdom of God which will usher in a wonderful paradise, the end is nigh, well I am sure you can understand why it lacks appeal in comparison to, the earth will be a paradise upon which you can live forever, you think?
Contemplation and predictions on "end-is-nigh" prophesies are a productive strategy for cults, or so I believe.

Give it a go and let us know, nothing better that empirical evidence right? That will test how much you really believe in this impending genocide.

Ruffly from this info in Wiki, it's about 150,000,000+ killed in the "major" wars since 1914. 100 years and this many at the minimum have been killed. Probably in the time it takes to read this, a few hundred others will be dead from fighting on the planet.
Find another 100 year time period in humans history that compares to this?
