The monsters of the past century were more honestly and openly monstrous. Hitler and Stalin were quite open about their intentions promising their followers revenge and glory.<BR/>Today, all kinds of crime are concealed under all kinds of pious figleaves.

My nomination would be both those religious and political agents who, because of bigotry and a dualist view of human nature, have caused the death of millions of people through the AIDS virus.<BR/><BR/>A close second would be the religious, political and commercial agents whose greed will be responsible for the upcoming holocaust that will be caused by their refusal to do anything about global warming.MadPriesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15120376342802143188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-82892623168485244572009-03-16T04:07:00.000-04:002009-03-16T04:07:00.000-04:00Yes they are all Thugs!
