gene Posted November 25, 2003 Posted November 25, 2003 Well, i am sure everyone in this forum are science enthusiasts that is the reason while you joined this forum. But, i am curious that is there any one out there who idolise Adolf Hitler? Ok, let's put aside all the evil and bad that he did and look at what he bring about. I believe that he was a key player to development in Genome, a slight contibution. It was amazing how Hitler a man so cruel and sadistic also had interest in science. I think he was the man who created Eugenics in the first place. Is it true? And i'm quite sure in the years ahead when scientist and researchers have found about more about Genome. There will undoubtedly be a rise in "Genoism" or discrimination of genes. (If there is such a breakthrough in both scientific and ethical area.) P.S. I meant no discrimination. Just a general Topic. I hope i don't spark any anger or uproar.
Dudde Posted November 26, 2003 Posted November 26, 2003 i'm sure the members of this forum are capable of a mature conversation concerning the matter */subtle threat*
YT2095 Posted November 27, 2003 Posted November 27, 2003 Personaly, No I Dont, "Idolise" or have any respect whatsoever for the "man"(I use the term Man advisedly). I can never resolve "The means justifying the end" in any scenario. my reply is a resounding NO!
gene Posted November 27, 2003 Author Posted November 27, 2003 Woo, that is some upbeat response Some may find that what he done is totally inhumane. Well, in the past, i guess his presence brought many deaths. Well, my country wasn't really affected by Hitler's "ideology". But, we were invaded by the Japanese. Living in the era, whatever atrocities that hitler did or the Japs. did certainly didn't affect me physically or mentally. But, it educated me that's all. I marvel at how Hitler was about to come to power in such short time and able to convince thnation to listen to him. That's all. Maybe what happened in the past in England is deeply embedded in the country. So, Hitler's name isn't really welcomed. With regard to the genocide that he caused. I agree with YT that he doesn't deserve to be even called a "man"! Good one!
NSX Posted November 27, 2003 Posted November 27, 2003 My old history teacher like Hitler's methods of portraying his views, but didn't like Hitler's principles.
gene Posted November 27, 2003 Author Posted November 27, 2003 Yeah, he was a great speaker. A total gift! I have seen him speak before. It was very powerful and convinced. Although i don't really understand German. But the tone could tell me that his public speaking skill was GREAT. Well, i saw a documentary about Hitler. And, he was a very gentle and caring man. (I'm am not sure whether is it propaganda or not. But it was his Secretary who said so.) But, to the Jews, it was a toally different thing.
Dave Posted November 29, 2003 Posted November 29, 2003 Hmm. Have my doubts about the gentle and caring bit myself; I know quite a lot of people who are both (or one or the other) but most of those don't go around shooting/gassing people that are 'impure'.
