Sorry but these forums are not the real world.

You don't have to.

And even if you're not religious, your "point," such as it was, reminds me of the religious circuses that exist on this continent with such a ferocity unmatched in Europe.

Ahahahaha yea C-D forums totally represents how we view each other in the U.S.
You forigners are hilarious, and very clueless about us.
We all have friends from all kinds of different kinds of backgrounds. Religious, ethnicity or political

And there it is. The lame, recycled maple syrup jokes.
I guess you don't understand the concept of message boards. I have to wait until I'm personally addressed in order to respond? Cute.

Yeah they tried that game with Sadaam the tyrant and lost. Stabbed the old US in the back too with France and Germany and Turkey, who wanted into the pathetic EU, leading the way. Oil for food scandals abound and europeans still want to sit on their high horse acting like they are better than everybody else. Your flagship country Germany just a short time ago tried to kill everybody in Europe and folks pretend it never happened. Gimme a break.

I always felt that living in the U.S. was the same as living in Europe, just a different part of town. I mean, I have, actually, lived in Europe. And been there a few times to visit the old neighborhood.

Neither place has it better, neither is more advanced, or more cool. They're just different places doing different things.

Someone else's perspective may vary, but that's his/her problem.

You must be pretty obsessed with religion because all I was talking about is killing babies.

I guess you DK many Europeans who live in Europe.

Generally speaking most cannot afford nice material goods, no different than their U.S. counterparts. They are however, less inclined to go into personal debt to acquire stuff.

I lived in the US. I've never seen such divisiveness in my life. Everyone seems to hate each other. There were people in the States who wouldn't speak to me because I was a "ni__er-lover". Others wouldn't speak to me because I'm an atheist. I've known people in the US who said all American Muslims should be rounded up and shot. You may say you peacefully coexist with each other, but it's only a thin veneer.
