[StarSlayer]

ta da!

[Polpolion]

I'd just like to point out that I was only trying to say that the US is not an intellectual wasteland when I said it invented those things. I wasn't trying to do a oneupmanship, I was trying to point out that it has some potential and

Most of the people that called the US an intellectual wasteland realized that, it's just that they were too busy playing oneupmanship to care.

****ing arrogant Europeans

[Colonol Dekker]

Oh you mean your ancestral home?

[terran_emperor]

Yeah Respect your Motherland of Lady Britannia...for those of you descended from various British colonists. And for anyone whose ancestors hailed from other European countries, show respect to whichever country is appropriate...

Pah! We're all Kenyan anyway, so this discussion is stupid

[TrashMan]

guess who invented neckties?

Croats?

[Colonol Dekker]

 


It was invented during the French Revolution, when they were all guillotine happy. It purpose was for burials, it was used to keep the head from rolling around. People thought it looked so good on the corpses, that many dandies started to wear them.

[TrashMan]

You're wrong there...
The necktie was used in croatia looong before the French revolution. And it actaully called in the sorrounding countries as "kravata/croata" (or a varriance thereoff)

[pecenipicek]

you fail dekker.

one of the names for the necktie is "Cravat". What do you think where did that come from originally?


[edit]

Spoiler:

Wikipedia quote

Regardless of the fact that the definition of the necktie in most dictionaries states "a large band of fabric worn around the neck under the collar and tied in front with the ends hanging down as a decoration", its history says a lot more. Men have always found it necessary to tie something around their necks. The earliest historical example is in ancient Egypt.

None of us win

[terran_emperor]

Okay here's the big one - Who invented religion? I will not accept God, Gods of any Pantheon, Aliens or other such things as answers.

[pecenipicek]

The modern definition of it is ours whichever way you look at it tho. Or we popularised the damn thing. Eh

[terran_emperor]

I'll have you know, i actually know the answer to this question. I'll reveal it fter a few more reactions

[pecenipicek]

Was it the apes from 2001 worshiping the Monolith?



@Picenipicek
We have bow ties, bow ties that spin

[terran_emperor]

@T_E
Was it the apes from 2001 worshiping the Monolith?

  I must admit i completly forgot about that. But no...not what i was thinkg

Now the answer to my Question -> Who invented Religion?
We all did, everyone of us created Religion.
And we still do.
We all create our own individual religions.
For there are as many religions as there are people.
No two individual people can ever have exactly the same Religious Beliefs.
We each have our own particular spin on our Religions.
Parts that one person will emphasie and follow with Zealous belief, while others will totally ignore that same bit...
But Anyway, the answer is we all invent our own Religions
