Submit your Halloween pumpkin pics to /r/horror's carving competition!

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

I guess that's a matter of perspective. War sucks.

Yeah, if America had entered WW1 by then all of those Germans would have died that night.

Germany - We'll eliminate an entire race of people. Japan - We'll march your prisoners of war until they're dead. Iran - We'll make an example of our enemies through execution. England - We'll murder millions of Catholics in Ireland because they're Catholic. North Korea - We'll threaten to use nuclear weapons on entire civilizations for food aid.

Somehow I feel as if one event shouldn't define an entire country.

That's why America made sure and had a whole bunch of those events.

You want to know why we were able to do this? Washington invaded on Christmas because he could. You want to know why he could? Easy, freedom of religion.

[–]squeelcheese 2 points3 points ago

This means either one of two things:

1) You are super religious because you find the Christmas holiday significant. If this is the case you should not find any reason to criticize America as you should be morally against war totally. If you are against war totally there are far more guilty parties not solely American. Especially considering there are at least 2 sides to every war.

2) You are just looking for a reason to bash America and are disregarding that this is a frequent and common tactic in warfare.

Examples: The German offensive known as the "Battle of the Bulge" in WWII. Pearl Harbor which took place on a Sunday, a holy day of rest. The Vietnamese invasion of Cambodia during their new year The Tet Offensive

Holidays are given significance by sociocultural forces, not religious forces. Acknowledging a holiday as significant acknowledges that sociocultural authority, not a religious authority. Also: Christianity does not morally necessitate pacifism.

[–]squeelcheese -2 points-1 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Well then clearly society doesnt find holidays significant in times of war as evidenced by history...

Also: Christianity morally opposes violence and encourages peace

[–]persistent_illusion 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Indeed it doesn't! And Christian morality is a bit more complex than that.

Random trivia:

When I was researching the origin of my surname in genealogy, I learned that the first individual to have my name was at this battle. He was one of the Hessian mercenaries captured there.
