I would have gone back to when Hitler was a young teenager and introduced him to a cute jewish boy, then went into the future to see what had changed.
I maintain my belief Hitler was a self-loather who targeted people who reminded him of himself, includeing homosexuals.

I'm not trying to kill Hitler, just mess with he's mind by seeing how personal relationships affected he's political and military acts.

I may or may not decide to assassinate the men who organized the American Revolt, just to see if we stay british ruled, and what happens to our culture.

Well you would all drink a lot more tea, and make decent tv shows, also, it's called metric.

You don't necessarily have to kill him to bring that into effect.

That alone would be worth it.

Also, a deck of cards would cost a lot in tax, but that is ok, because you don't play cards, you arrange wagers to travel an absurd distance in a set time limit.

Did we debunk the Abrahamic religions yet?

Once we get those 4 billion people out of the way, we can get to work on CoF's (wicca?).

What do you mean by "debunk"? I think we established a while ago that you can't really disprove or prove religion anyway, but whatever.

Eh, religious has been pretty much dis-proven.  What really has been proven is that it's nearly impossible to change people's minds who enact walls.

"Having faith" that the bridge will not fall, implies that the bridge itself isn't that trustworthy. It's not that different from "I pray that the bridge will hold my weight."

I don't agree with that. By the logic used in that reasoning it's impossible to prove anything, thus that logic is flawed.
For me all gods have been debunked a while ago, as well as most belief.
I have few interest in religions of faith, but I'm interested at why poeple stick with them.

It's not flawed: it's impossible to prove anything unless you make certain assumptions and build from there. Call them dogmas or axioms or give them any other name, but they are still assumptions. Then there's the building technique. As useful as Logic is, it's just a made-up set of tools, and not the only one.
