Interesting data.
If we look at mortality in a different way however, then religious wars become quite significant. The Cain vs. Abel war, for instance, wiped out 25% of the known human population of the earth, and was fought entirely on the grounds of the two parties' disagreement vis-à-vis methods and practices of worship.

Wow... is this for realz? I need to check it out.
Regardless, I never did like that guy, or a lot of the other AM talk show types that feed self-serving defecation, labeled as the truth, to a mostly ignorant public. Or, if not ignorant, at least a public that is willing to be polarized (in whatever direction) because being polar is easier than fact finding and debating. And yes they are on all sides of the ongoing political debate so don't start calling me a liberal just because I think Beck is an ***.

However, the right side of that picture is a pretty good run down of how to properly invest in gold...give away 7%, no more.

There are also more women in slavery today in the world used as sex workers then the amount of Africans ever brought to America as slaves.
Black Rednecks and White Liberals by Thomas Sowell is a great book if you have an interest in culture.

You know what's interesting? On most car forums, one finds that the general consensus about teenagers is that they don't research, don't listen, and just throw a 6" exhaust on their car and call it a day.
Now, I take these things rather personally being 17 myself (And just, at that). What I find though, is that it seems like the older crowd are the ones that don't listen to anything. Case in point with 92_verty or whatever the **** his name was. That or he was just retarded.
Anyways, yeah... /mini-rant.
