They developed some good gymnist. Nadia Comaneci comes to mind.
The atheistic communist system didn't do to well in the intellectual
creativity department , however. The Russian had a very good chess
school and produced the greatest Chess Player in the world, Garry
Kasparov, however he was Jewish. Who else came out of Romania?
New level of ignorance by RJH!

Christian creationism is a fantasy -- and you bring ridicule and criticism from all quarters if you present it so enthusiastically.
The Bible was fabricated by animal killers and politicians and poets.........and who were womanisers and intoxicators (unqualified)
Its not eternal either.
This blind faith in....... clearly false doctrine is disturbing.

Originally posted by VoidSpiritIn his book Garry says is father, Kim Moiseevith Weinstein, was Jewish.
warsaw pact was the soviet unions answer to nato and kasparov is an armenian since his mother was (is?) armenian but he identifies himself as a russian.
Garik was born in Baku, the capital of Soviet Azerbaijan, a melting pot of
different nationalities, united by the common Russian language.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baku
He says both his mother and father learned to play chess when they
were young, and they loved solving the chess problems published in the
Baku Vyshka newspaper. His mothers name was Klara Shagenovna
Kasparova and his father died at 39 with cancer. After having acheived
much success in chess under his name Garik Weinstein, his surname
was changed to his mother's which she had not changed upon marriage.
This was due to the anti-semitism in the soviet system.
P.S. He played for the first time under the surname Kasparov in October
1975 and acheived his first success among adults by winning the Baku
"City Cup".

I see your flag is Romania. That was part of the old Soviet Union.

about your post and why it screams ignorance: romania wasn't a part of the soviet union as another pointed out. "The atheistic communist system" was just theoretical, a vast majority of romania remained orthodox christian (86.7😵. in fact only about 5% of romanians declared themselves atheists. the fact that atheism doesn't do well in the creativity department is moronic, if anything, fundamentalism would have the more profound impact on creativity since it betrays a closed mind. the fact that the russians produced the greatest chess player but he was jewish is another idiotic remark on your part.
lastly, what the fuk does my country have anything to do with my post?

This blind faith in....... clearly false doctrine is disturbing.
The Moral:
Star Wars is as basic as good vs. evil gets, and no matter if the evil is the Sith or the Empire, the side of good remains the same in each film. Jedi (the spiritual, bearded hippies of space) want freedom and democracy, and the Sith want to have all the power and all the control, and perhaps explode a planet or two if it suits their needs or seems like it might be fun.
But of course that's what makes them the bad guys and the Jedi the good guys -- while the Sith and Empire won't be content until they hold the entire galaxy in their fists, the Jedi are selfless, thinking only about the well-being of others. After all, you don't see Obi-Wan or Yoda enslaving countless drones of men for their own purposes, right?
The Miss:
In Attack of the Clones, Obi-Wan stumbles onto an army of clones while tracking the bounty hunter Jango Fett (wanted for the attempted assassination of Senator Amidala). The clones have been created in Jango's likeness by order of a Jedi who had died years before the order was placed. Totally not sketchy.
When he contacts the other Jedi and informs them of what's going on, they ask Obi-Wan if he thinks this army is connected to the threat on the senator's life, and in what has to be the least intuitive moment of his Jedi career, Obi-Wan says no.
The Jedi seem to agree with this assessment, because this isn't Star Wars: Attack of the Functional, Logical Plot, it's Star Wars: Attack of the KEEP MOVING THE PLOT FORWARD UNTIL GIANT CGI MONSTERS ARE FIGHTING CGI CLONES! So the Jedi Council doesn't dwell on this for a second, and why would they? What would a bunch of clones of the guy who tried to kill the senator have to do with that guy who tried to kill the senator? Did you answer "Probably nothing, I bet"? Congratulations, you're Yoda. As Yoda, you then, after making a few moves in the Senate, use these clones to build your own Grand Army of the Republic.
And sure, having an entire army is convenient. We get that. But while Yoda was sending wave after wave of mindless clones to their deaths, did anyone stop to consider whether or not enslaving an entire race might be a bad thing or, at the very least, un-Jedi-like behavior? It's true that they were bred for battle and even designed to be genetically obedient, but that doesn't really change the fact that they are sentient slaves of the Republic.
In fact, them being created and designed for self-sacrifice really makes the whole situation that more horrifying. Utilizing the clones just because they've been bred for war isn't better; that's like saying, "No, no, it's cool, they're allowed to be soldier slaves because they've been soldier slaves since they were children."

since I know practically nothing about Romania. But I do know a lot about
the Holy Bible and Christianity. Are all those Christians, you claim to be in
Romania, ignorant and full of bull crap too?
