Top Left: Ted Bundy (rapist/serial killer, murdered at least 30 women)
Middle Left: Hitler (ordered the murder of at least 17 million civilians, add to that the body count from the largest war in human history)
Bottom Left: Forest Whitaker (probably confused him with Idi Amin, the character he played in “The Last King of Scotland” who was the dictator of Uganda and who killed around 100,000 to 500,000 people)
Center: Osama Bin Laden (you’ve probably heard of him, responsible for somewhere around 4,000 deaths)
Top Right: Mao Zedong (leader of the Chinese Communist Party during and immediately following the Chinese Civil War, his reign caused 40-70 million deaths)
Middle Right: Joseph Stalin (the second leader of the Soviet Union, his reign killed around 4-10 million people)
Bottom Right: Charles Manson (leader of a cult-like group of mostly women, responsible for at least 7 murders)
For Stalin, 10 million is the minimum number if you count the victims of famine, which was at least in part due to his actions in dispossessing the kulaks. Even if he didn’t deliberately kill them, he was culpable.
I know Osama’s numbers are off, but I couldn’t find the true number anywhere, so I just guessed based on the big attacks we know he’s responsible for. The true number is probably much higher. If you can find the correct number, feel free to fix it.
Thanks for posting these stats, Steve; most of us may just be here for shallow laughs but some of us also appreciate this kind of trivia. Appreciate you doing this legwork!
Um… no. I’m as far from being a fan of the guy as you can be, but even if you count every single violent death in Afghanistan and Iraq since the beginning of the respective invasions as his responsibility, he’s still in the low six figures, while Hitler, Stalin and Mao are about an order of magnitude higher.
And left many more mutilated, even to this day it has its effects (and no, “it was never used before so noone knew what would happen, so it was ok” is not an excuse, neither is “they attacked us”, since they didn’t, they were innocent civillians, there simply was no excuse).
Also several other presidents/war criminals are missing, like Johnson.
*the above ignorance is currently under inspection by the cyber police under the “waste of internets” act.*
The Japanese government was teaching children to fight with bamboo spears and instructing women to kill themselves and their children before being captured by Americans. You really think invading Japan was a better option?
This, what you are saying, Sir, is pure ignorance. How would you feel if someone bombed the crap out of you because your government is doing evil s**t? We are talking about the lives of innocent people, dude. If you were in a war you don’t have anything to do with , you wouldn’t want to defend yourself?
For everyone else: google “My Lai”.
Sometimes, these things just have to be done, right…?
You completely misunderstood the point of the argument. The Japanese government was indoctrinating its entire civilian population to commit suicide attacks (or just suicide) in the event of an invasion. And quite a large number of them actually did during the invasion of Okinawa.
If you assume that the alternative to the nuclear bombings was a full-scale invasion of the main islands and a similar percentage of civilians would have died all over Japan, then the bombs actually saved the lives of millions of Japanese civilians.
Of course this is a bit of a false dichtomy. Dropping two bombs in very short succession on large cities was certainly not the only way to do it.
Actually, I think Mai Lai is slightly more unjustified than the the atomic bombs on Japan. At least Japan was actually against America in the war.
(Even so; “Hey, I know. Let’s show those Japanese people how strong we are by nuking a major city.”
“Do you think they’ll get the message after about 75,000 dead?”
…
“Yeap.”
“Lets do it again anyway”).
North Vietnam would have had nothing against America if they didn’t intervene in the war. And all America managed to do in the end was just slow them down, and not actually stop the Viet Cong. Good job, USA.
What I find most horrifying about the My Lai massacre is not so much the events as the aftermath. Massacres happen in a war, that is almost inevitable. Which is why it should be avoided at nearly all costs.
But the fact that such a well-documented and -witnessed event was almost covered up, lead only to a single conviction, with the convicted mass murderer enjoying widespread support from the American public and politicians and being pardoned after 3.5 years of house arrest…
@brazzy
Oh I see, try to get the kill before yet suicide, that way US comes out with a better K/D spread? Lol jk
I do think that the bombs could have been dropped somewhere more militarized…
stalin killed far far more than 4-10 million, with the famine he created to break the peasants, the giant purges the racial killings its suspected he killed around 20-30 million deaths.
An actor represents his character, just like a painting or a photograph represents a person. In this case, Forrest Whitaker represents Idi Amin. I don’t think there is anything wrong with this.
Whoever put this together doesn’t realize they used a picture of an actor.
Just like they don’t understand that the correct way to refer to that Scripture is either as “Psalm 37″ (the entire poem) or else “Psalms 37:1-18″ (part of the book of poems).
No, you are incorrect. It is Psalm (singular poem) 37: 1-18, that is verses 1-18 of the individual composition. ‘Psalms’ is only correct when referring to a). the entire book (The book that is made up of Psalms), or b). More than one psalm (Psalms 148-150, for example). To cite “Psalms 37:1-18) is wrong, and liable to drive those who know better crazy. Or something like that. As Fred Astaire put it, “That’s the sort of thing that silly people do.”
And yes, I am a professional who knows what he’s doing. I am an ordained clergyman.
“An actor represents his character, just like a painting or a photograph represents a person.”
But what does a photograph of an actor in costume represent? The actor, or the person the actor is portraying? All the other photos are of the actual evil people in question. To have this one photo be of an actor portraying an evil person implies that the magazine staff can’t tell the difference between the real person and the actor who played that person in a movie.
Also, I can’t help but notice that the only “evil person” for whom this mistake was made was the black dude. “All black people look alike” is a common racist stereotype, so really there are layers of fail here.
But there are plenty of photos of Idi Amin out there. Why not use one of those? It’s obvious whoever put Whittaker’s photo on there was a clueless idiot.
Manson has been in prison or quite some time. It’s not the sort of place that really allows one to age gracefully. Not to mention he’s batsh!t crazy, that can lead to one not taking the best care of ones self.
No, it’s Forest Whitaker in the movie “The Last King of Scotland”, where he portrayed Idi Amin Dada. Someone in the editing department has some obvious problems understanding the difference between reality and fiction, but given the subject material in the publication I’m not surprised.
If they were going to use evil people from Family Affair they should’ve used Mr. French. You know, there’s a reason he had that name. Just ask Jody and Buffy … or why it was called “Family Affair.” Gross.
I think the real evil in Family Affair was Mrs. Beasley. Could you possibly find a more evil name? Also, why was it that only Buffy could hear what she was saying? That doll was as possessed as Chucky. She’s the reason the whole family was so dysfunctional: A British guy named French talking to children like he’s narrating Winnie-the Pooh, an older brother appropriately called Sissy, and door knobs placed in the middle of doors so you can’t figure out which way to open them. …and like you said, the concept of a “Family Affair” is pretty gross.
Isn’t every single one? And including Ted Bundy is the real fail here; for all the horror movies made of him, he was just a mentally ill wretch who killed the whole of two people in a fit of insanity. How on earth does he fit among people who’ve committed genocide?
Fail on two counts. First, Bundy killed at least 30 people — maybe more. And he was in no way insane. He actually did a fairly decent job defending himself in court.
ted bundy: “…a sadistic sociopath who took pleasure from another human’s pain and the control he had over his victims, to the point of death, and even after.”
Or to quote Eddie Izzard rather than Megadeth. . .
‘Pol Pot killed 1.7 million people. We can’t even deal with that! You know, we think if somebody kills someone, that’s murder, you go to prison. You kill 10 people, you go to Texas, they hit you with a brick, that’s what they do. 20 people, you go to a hospital, they look through a small window at you forever. And over that, we can’t deal with it, you know? Someone’s killed 100,000 people. We’re almost going, “Well done! You killed 100,000 people? You must get up very early in the morning. I can’t even get down the gym! Your diary must look odd: “Get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death – lunch- death, death, death -afternoon tea – death, death, death – quick shower…” ‘
Magist: Even if true, the sheer level of damage he did to his own country in the Cultural Revolution puts him squarely in the “evil” category. That was a wave of brutality precisely calculated to get rid of all potential rivals and set his country back at least 30 years.
Because she is not evil.
Why are the dudes who media-hype her stuff not on that cover?
Because it’s everyone mentioning her name and noone would even count that many people.
Not sure why Osama’s the biggest photo. Stalin, Mao, Hitler responsible for millions of deaths, Amin hundreds of thousands, but Osama rates the biggest picture for a few thousand?
Yeah, bigger FAIL is that someone seems to forget the number of people who have been killed in the name of the church and in the name of jesus. While I’m not saying that the church or jesus actually KILLED anyone physically, but we shouldn’t be quick to forget the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition (which no-body expected), or the church’s blind eye during the Holocaust.
The target group has a very short memory, so you need the most current bogeyman to be immediately recognizable. The others are only needed to convey that the publication is not about that single person.
No, the black dude was supposed to be Idi Amin (as opposed to the pictured actor who portrayed him). Pol Pot was a Cambodian (south east asian) dictator.
Yes it looks like some typical religious tome , hence the stupid gaffe. You want to see what Richard Dawkins has to say about that total rubbish of a book “Atlas of Creation” by Harun Yahya which on one page refers to a sea snake as an ‘eel’ and also on another page shows a fisherman’s ‘fly’ (i.e. a lure, a metal hook tied with feathers to mimic a real fly ) as an actual living fly !
Don’t know top left guy, but rest are: Hitler, Idi Amin (as portrayed by Whittaker), Mao, Stalin, Manson. As people have been noting, the Idi Amin is from the Last King of Scotland. He (Amin) died not too many years ago in exile in Saudi Arabia, and last I heard, his kids are still active in Uganda (some in the government).
Dane Cook? Really? *facepalm*
We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes. – Gene Roddenberry
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? – Epicurus
Mao butchered hundreds of millions of his own people by proxy in the purges of the Cultural Revolution and bungled his economy so badly in the Great Leap Forward that millions more died.
He is either evil or the world’s greatest idiot, tale your pick.
Mao did nothing other than kill tens of millions of his own countrymen and banned any religious practice, killing those who dared stay behind and practice.
Stalin, kinda the same thing.
Oh, I’m sorry, did I answer your trolling in a straightforward matter?
Mao could be up there for killing millions of innocent Chinese peasants in the Great Chinese Famine (aka The Great Leap Forward) and killing political enemies (Cultural Revolution).
If you really have to ask about Stalin, then you just not knowing. Oh, why not go into it. Tens of thousands of priests, nuns, and monks from the Russian Orthodox Church were dragged out of their places of worship and shot. Any person Stalin thought was a threat or an “enemy of the people” or just looked at him the wrong way (or if he was just in the mood) got similar treatment or were sent to Siberia to die a slow and painful death in work camps. Then there’s the Ukrainian farmers that refused to collectivize their crops. Stalin decided to blockade them with the Red Army. Tens of thousands starved. Then there’s the fact that Stalin sent his own son on a suicide charge into a German machine gun position (as was standard practice when dealing with “cowards” (people officers and other mucky mucks didn’t quite care for) in the Red Army. Great guy.
Well if you are dumb enough to believe the Bible, the most evil character was God. He drowned most of the world’s population in a flood, killed innocent babies for the fun of it, Liked the smell of burning animal and human sacrifices.
Yeah, Old Testament Yahweh has serious psychological issues. Punishing people with eternal torment for not acknowledging him as their master, testing the strength of belief with cruel and spurious demands…
Yep, sounds like your typical bully severely overcompensating an inferiority complex in a violent and antisocial manner.
The bottom right is NOT charles manson its Roch “Moise” Theriault, a Canadian born serial killer who died recently. He claimed to be the reincarnation of Moses. Look it up.
I dunno about that. I saw a photo taken of Theriault in 1981 and his hairline was already pretty far back on his scalp and he wore his hair combed straight back. He wasn’t imprisoned for murder until 1993, and was killed in an altercation with his cellmate back in February.
Aside from using an actor rather than the actual person, I think the real fail is the usage of “How to deal with evil.” Evil doesn’t have to be extreme, such as the ones on the pamphlet, but you deal with evil everyday in the form of human nature. These people are just the worst of it.
I had to use Google to find out who the hell Forest Whitaker is. I’ve never heard of him before. Looking through the list of TV shows and movies he’s appeared in, it seems that the only one I’ve seen is Battlefield earth, a travesty of a movie I’ve done my best to try and forget.
Stalin died thrashing around on the floor for hours after having a stroke, while everyone stood outside the room studiously not noticing till they were absolutely sure beyond all possible doubt that he was dead. Which is alright by me.
Actually he suffered a stroke while alone in his room and was not discovered for an unknown number of hours (likely around 10) because he had given an order not to be disturbed. Doctors were immediately called, but took hours to arrive since this happened in his country house. He was then tended to, put in bed and died there several days later.
I’d say that equally as annoying as bible-thumping religious freaks are the condescending atheists who try to be clever all the time even though they’re just parroting the same sh*t over and over too. Either extreme is really annoying to be around.
I’d say that referring to the Bible has a much higher casualty tally than ahteism, which is probably why atheists keep diatribing against it.
Now you might argue that the people believing in it are responsible, not the book itself, but, you see, it set such examples …
The extremes bother me a bit, but I’m more annoyed by the arguments they make. Most annoying (to me) are atheists that say because some random bad thing happened then it proves God doesn’t exist, or why didn’t God stop random person from drowning. It’s like they have no clue at all as to how things work (to a christian, mind you) I don’t care if someone doesn’t believe in God, they should return the favor.
Why is osama in the middle? I think hitler should be in the middle, he was more evil than osama, he had the camps and all that jazz. Osama just hid and ordered people to do his dirty work.
Nobody has dropped any Nukes on Civilians since the Geneva Convention. Prior to that it was normal practice in war to kill civilians with whatever you felt like using.
Forrest Whittaker is evil, no denying that.
They say that Forest Whitaker is a bad moth%^$#!*# [SHUT YOUR MOUTH]
but I’m talkin’ ’bout Forest Whitaker
[well we can dig it]
I hear he has a great big sha- (SHUT YO MOUTH). I just talking about the shaft…
Did he play Idi Amin in that movie?
No… it was Joseph Olita.
http://cultbustersgalactica.yuku.com/topic/549
You comment on the wrong movie.
This picture is from “The last King of Scotland”
And Idi Amin was played by …
Forest Whitaker
Well, I prefer his acting on Snake’s on a Plane! But his role in The Matrix is also interesting!
Ha ha ha!!!!! Such a funny comment – I LOVE it!!! Good morning chuckle for me…thanks!
Is that hagrid on the bottom right?
Yes, Yes that is Hagrid and the guy in the middle is Jesus.
I thought that was jimmy carr in the top left.
Charles Manson
Anyone know who top left is?
I was thinking the same thing. Who is that guy. I know who all the others are.
Some rapist and mass murderer. Don’t ask me which one, though. I’d have to go through wikipedia’s entire mass murderer list to find his name…
Ted Bundy.
I thought that was Tom Cruise….you know because of the whole Sceintology bullstuff
That’s definitely not Tom Cruise. You trollin’ bro?
Def. Tom Cruise.
Def. Tom Cruise… Def.
Def?
Def.
No, no, it’s Rob Lowe. Far more evil than Tom Cruise.
I do believe you are correct.
Top Left: Ted Bundy (rapist/serial killer, murdered at least 30 women)

Mao was evil?
I thought he was a liberator?
It depends on the one who looks
A Liberator? Are you kidding?
He doesn’t look at all like a B-24!
+5
Yea, but he did practically the same things xD
It’s kinda unfair how Osama got center stage… I mean, Mao killed WAY more than him, and somehow managed to make those deaths legal.
or a sex cushion
yeah he “liberated” people from their lives
Thanks for digging up the numbers. Now we can play “who doesn’t belong here?”.
Hint, the conversion factor for personally committed vs. incited murders seems to be 1:1,000,000.
Won’t come to democracy?
We’ll bring it to you!
Hey look everybody its captain statistics.Giving out facts on a comedy site that no one cares about.
I don’t know. You seem to care about this site.
Heh.
Idiot.
For Stalin, 10 million is the minimum number if you count the victims of famine, which was at least in part due to his actions in dispossessing the kulaks. Even if he didn’t deliberately kill them, he was culpable.

Where’s George W Bush? He’s been responsible for more deaths than any of these guys.
Um… no. I’m as far from being a fan of the guy as you can be, but even if you count every single violent death in Afghanistan and Iraq since the beginning of the respective invasions as his responsibility, he’s still in the low six figures, while Hitler, Stalin and Mao are about an order of magnitude higher.
wheres President Truman?
Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined were between 150,000 and 250,000 deaths.
And left many more mutilated, even to this day it has its effects (and no, “it was never used before so noone knew what would happen, so it was ok” is not an excuse, neither is “they attacked us”, since they didn’t, they were innocent civillians, there simply was no excuse).

stalin killed far far more than 4-10 million, with the famine he created to break the peasants, the giant purges the racial killings its suspected he killed around 20-30 million deaths.
Bubba Watson. Everyone knows left-handers are evil — it’s why the Latin word for “left” is “sinister”.
*sinistra
*Nad.
You got you and your evil twin confused.
IT’S A TRAP!
LOL!
No, that’s why the word “sinister” came to mean “of ill intent,” because it came for the Latin word for “left (side).”
I think it’s Jeffry Dahmer.
its ted thedor buny
its ted thedor bundy
It’s Theodore Robert “Ted” Bundy
No, it´s Theodore Roosevelt.
Gaius Baltar I think.
omg you rock.
Made me laugh. Hilarious.
Well, he was responsible for more deaths than all the others put together…
Winner!
Ted Bundy
it’s ted bundy
Bruce Campbell.
Serial murderer and rapist Ted Bundy. A friend in collage was in a punk band called The Bundy Barbeque.
Ted Bundy
Ted Bundy.
No that is engelbert Humperdinck.
Jeffrey Dahmer, probably the most messed up serial killer in 20th century history.
Google image search is evil, no denying that.
So yeah, it was obvisously supposed to be Amin Dada, but who are the guys at top left and bottom right ?
I believe that bottom right is Charles Manson
Yep, that’s Manson
Wrong! It’s Hagrid, retards!
LMAO.
It is as well
Another wrong picture. They wanted to show Rasputin.
Bottom right is Rasputin
ummm…last time I checked Rasputin didn’t have a swastika tattooed on his forehead. It’s Manson.
Top Left is Bundy, Bottom right is Manson.
This is my church Bulletin, the pastor mentioned it in service.
Hilarious that the staff couldn’t tell Whitaker from Idi Amin!!!
Thinking of Khomeni for bottom right, but not sure…
An actor represents his character, just like a painting or a photograph represents a person. In this case, Forrest Whitaker represents Idi Amin. I don’t think there is anything wrong with this.
But this isn’t Forrest Whitaker – it’s a photograph of Forrest Whitaker.
“Ceci n’est pas une pipe.”
C’est le mec en jouant le mec déguisé en un autre mec!
If we’re going to get pedantic, shouldnt we say its a picture of a picture of Forest Whitaker representing Idi Amin?
I think Forest Whitaker may take issue at your accusations he is representing Idi Amin.
Portraying him, yes. Representing him, no.
Whoever put this together doesn’t realize they used a picture of an actor.
Just like they don’t understand that the correct way to refer to that Scripture is either as “Psalm 37″ (the entire poem) or else “Psalms 37:1-18″ (part of the book of poems).

Seriously?
Anyone who follows the concept of religion does not know what they are talking about!
Yes, they do. They know very well.
They just hope ordinary people won’t see it.
u mad bro?

A fail within a fail within a fail.
(MIS)REPRESENTATION.
But there are plenty of photos of Idi Amin out there. Why not use one of those? It’s obvious whoever put Whittaker’s photo on there was a clueless idiot.
Is it David Koresh?
i thought David Koresh. It is Ted Bundy. they just reversed an image from google.
Top left – Ted Bundy
Bottom right – Charles Manson
Cheers for that.
I donno, it could be rasbutin. I don’t recall Manson having a beard that awesome or aged
*Rasputin* …and no, it is absolutely Manson.
Manson has been in prison or quite some time. It’s not the sort of place that really allows one to age gracefully. Not to mention he’s batsh!t crazy, that can lead to one not taking the best care of ones self.
*for quite some time! FOR!!
Top left Ted Bundy, Bottom right charles manson.
Bottom Right is Charles Manson
Magazine name fail.
Doncaster Rovers are now at Keepmoat, not Bellevue.
Our president lives at Bellevue. I guess the Rovers moved away because he is a terrible roommate.
Also the oldest public hospital in the USA, reknowned in horror films for it’s psychiatric ward.
Top left is Ted Bundy. Bottom right is Charles Manson. Most of them are dead.
“most of them” as in “both”?
mostly
Manson’s not dead.
so “most of them” as in “one of both”. thanks. didn’t know that.
They should’ve been all in black-white to make a good cover in the first place
Isn’t that the fascist, I repeat: fascist, leader of Zimbabwe?
No, it’s Forest Whitaker in the movie “The Last King of Scotland”, where he portrayed Idi Amin Dada. Someone in the editing department has some obvious problems understanding the difference between reality and fiction, but given the subject material in the publication I’m not surprised.
That was an effin brilliant film.
Whittaker should win Oscars for life for his superb acting in that film.
Ohhhhhhh
))
Are you sure it’s not Johnny Whitaker from Family Affair? They look so much alike.
If they were going to use evil people from Family Affair they should’ve used Mr. French. You know, there’s a reason he had that name. Just ask Jody and Buffy … or why it was called “Family Affair.” Gross.
I think the real evil in Family Affair was Mrs. Beasley. Could you possibly find a more evil name? Also, why was it that only Buffy could hear what she was saying? That doll was as possessed as Chucky. She’s the reason the whole family was so dysfunctional: A British guy named French talking to children like he’s narrating Winnie-the Pooh, an older brother appropriately called Sissy, and door knobs placed in the middle of doors so you can’t figure out which way to open them. …and like you said, the concept of a “Family Affair” is pretty gross.
Also it was Uganda, not Zimbabwe.
But Zimbabwe is so much more fun to pronounce.
Isn’t every single one? And including Ted Bundy is the real fail here; for all the horror movies made of him, he was just a mentally ill wretch who killed the whole of two people in a fit of insanity. How on earth does he fit among people who’ve committed genocide?
Fail on two counts. First, Bundy killed at least 30 people — maybe more. And he was in no way insane. He actually did a fairly decent job defending himself in court.
Ted Bundy killed more than 30 women…
No, that’s Al Bundy.
Who’s that riding into the sun?
Who’s the man with the itchy gun?
Who’s the man who kills for fun?
Psycho Dad. Psycho Dad. Psycho Dad!
He sleeps with a gun, but he loves his son.
Killed his wife ’cause she weighed a ton… Psycho Dad!

I think bottom right is Rasputin?
No, it’s Hagrid.
I thought it was The Robber Hotzenplotz.
For the umpteenth time it’s Charles Manson. Here’s Rasputin so you can tell the difference: http://www.freeinfosociety.com/media/images/867.jpg

Yes, you are.
The author of this book must be a republican, or at least watches foxnew…
Why is Mao tse tong evil? wasn’t he the good guy?
in his own standards…putting the group’s values ahead of the individual’s values…
Indeed, we would get nowhere if we call everyone who is responsible for the death of 30+ million people evil.
. . .and when you kill a man, you’re a murderer,
Kill many, and you’re a conqueror.
Kill them all, ooooooooh, you’re a god.
Or to quote Eddie Izzard rather than Megadeth. . .
‘Pol Pot killed 1.7 million people. We can’t even deal with that! You know, we think if somebody kills someone, that’s murder, you go to prison. You kill 10 people, you go to Texas, they hit you with a brick, that’s what they do. 20 people, you go to a hospital, they look through a small window at you forever. And over that, we can’t deal with it, you know? Someone’s killed 100,000 people. We’re almost going, “Well done! You killed 100,000 people? You must get up very early in the morning. I can’t even get down the gym! Your diary must look odd: “Get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death – lunch- death, death, death -afternoon tea – death, death, death – quick shower…” ‘
^ somebody should flag this post
Cake or death?
Magist: Even if true, the sheer level of damage he did to his own country in the Cultural Revolution puts him squarely in the “evil” category. That was a wave of brutality precisely calculated to get rid of all potential rivals and set his country back at least 30 years.
Oh, yes. guess i didn’t look at it this way before writing that. thanks for the correction..
they were all good guys in their standards. i s’ppose.
Why isn’t Rebecca Black on that cover?
Because she is not evil.
Why are the dudes who media-hype her stuff not on that cover?
Because it’s everyone mentioning her name and noone would even count that many people.
I would bet more people know that that is a representation of Idi Amin than if there was an actual picture of Idi Amin there…
Not sure why Osama’s the biggest photo. Stalin, Mao, Hitler responsible for millions of deaths, Amin hundreds of thousands, but Osama rates the biggest picture for a few thousand?
It’s a fundamentalist Christian propaganda publication, what do you expect? Facts, logic, and reason? LOL
Of course no! Propaganda is same everywhere just that christians make it look failish
Yeah, bigger FAIL is that someone seems to forget the number of people who have been killed in the name of the church and in the name of jesus. While I’m not saying that the church or jesus actually KILLED anyone physically, but we shouldn’t be quick to forget the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition (which no-body expected), or the church’s blind eye during the Holocaust.
The target group has a very short memory, so you need the most current bogeyman to be immediately recognizable. The others are only needed to convey that the publication is not about that single person.
the black dude is pol potential, he wanted to make a farming country, killing over 2 million people.
so not really a fail
Plus he was in Battlefield Earth with John Travolta and that was just AWFUL….
^win
No, the black dude was supposed to be Idi Amin (as opposed to the pictured actor who portrayed him). Pol Pot was a Cambodian (south east asian) dictator.
Yes it looks like some typical religious tome , hence the stupid gaffe. You want to see what Richard Dawkins has to say about that total rubbish of a book “Atlas of Creation” by Harun Yahya which on one page refers to a sea snake as an ‘eel’ and also on another page shows a fisherman’s ‘fly’ (i.e. a lure, a metal hook tied with feathers to mimic a real fly ) as an actual living fly !
On returning I see everyone talking about Pol Pot?! It’s Chairman Mao…..
Don’t know top left guy, but rest are: Hitler, Idi Amin (as portrayed by Whittaker), Mao, Stalin, Manson. As people have been noting, the Idi Amin is from the Last King of Scotland. He (Amin) died not too many years ago in exile in Saudi Arabia, and last I heard, his kids are still active in Uganda (some in the government).
Is it just me, or does the guy on top left look like Henry Rollins?
Rollins on the floor laughing?
…
Yeah, not funny…
you gringos think you can condemn everyone who’s different from you, you are the ones who are reallly evil
aren’t you condemning right now?
How To Deal With STUPID PEOPLE
2011: The Year of the Atheist
So, what do you say when an atheist sneezes? When you die, nothing happens! (Cook, Dane)
Not one of them who took up in his youth with this opinion that there are no gods ever continued until old age faithful to his conviction. (Plato)
Citing sources is fun!
Dane Cook? Really? *facepalm*
We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes. – Gene Roddenberry
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? – Epicurus
it’s going to be a good year then.
What did Mao do? And why is the guy who saved the world from the nazis in there?
Mao butchered hundreds of millions of his own people by proxy in the purges of the Cultural Revolution and bungled his economy so badly in the Great Leap Forward that millions more died.
He is either evil or the world’s greatest idiot, tale your pick.
Obvious Troll is obvious.
Or is it a serious question? if you really want to learn about how bad Mao was, read “Wild Swans”. Stalin murdered about 20 million Russians.
Mao did nothing other than kill tens of millions of his own countrymen and banned any religious practice, killing those who dared stay behind and practice.
Stalin, kinda the same thing.
Oh, I’m sorry, did I answer your trolling in a straightforward matter?
Mao could be up there for killing millions of innocent Chinese peasants in the Great Chinese Famine (aka The Great Leap Forward) and killing political enemies (Cultural Revolution).
If you really have to ask about Stalin, then you just not knowing. Oh, why not go into it. Tens of thousands of priests, nuns, and monks from the Russian Orthodox Church were dragged out of their places of worship and shot. Any person Stalin thought was a threat or an “enemy of the people” or just looked at him the wrong way (or if he was just in the mood) got similar treatment or were sent to Siberia to die a slow and painful death in work camps. Then there’s the Ukrainian farmers that refused to collectivize their crops. Stalin decided to blockade them with the Red Army. Tens of thousands starved. Then there’s the fact that Stalin sent his own son on a suicide charge into a German machine gun position (as was standard practice when dealing with “cowards” (people officers and other mucky mucks didn’t quite care for) in the Red Army. Great guy.
Well if you are dumb enough to believe the Bible, the most evil character was God. He drowned most of the world’s population in a flood, killed innocent babies for the fun of it, Liked the smell of burning animal and human sacrifices.
That dude was f*ucked up!
Yeah, Old Testament Yahweh has serious psychological issues. Punishing people with eternal torment for not acknowledging him as their master, testing the strength of belief with cruel and spurious demands…
Yep, sounds like your typical bully severely overcompensating an inferiority complex in a violent and antisocial manner.
Why they put Denzel Washington there?
+1
Awesome
Someone please tell me this is from Bellevue Baptist in Memphis…it looks like they’re font and they are awful enough to do this.
yeah, it is!
Haha…three flags over Memphis!
It’s 3 flags over Jesus
So, 2011 is the year of the bible? No wonder the ancient Maya thought this would be our last complete year.
The bottom right is NOT charles manson its Roch “Moise” Theriault, a Canadian born serial killer who died recently. He claimed to be the reincarnation of Moses. Look it up.
I dunno about that. I saw a photo taken of Theriault in 1981 and his hairline was already pretty far back on his scalp and he wore his hair combed straight back. He wasn’t imprisoned for murder until 1993, and was killed in an altercation with his cellmate back in February.
So all these guys are evil, but copyright infringment is *NOT* evil? Ok, plank-eye.
Aside from using an actor rather than the actual person, I think the real fail is the usage of “How to deal with evil.” Evil doesn’t have to be extreme, such as the ones on the pamphlet, but you deal with evil everyday in the form of human nature. These people are just the worst of it.
I had to use Google to find out who the hell Forest Whitaker is. I’ve never heard of him before. Looking through the list of TV shows and movies he’s appeared in, it seems that the only one I’ve seen is Battlefield earth, a travesty of a movie I’ve done my best to try and forget.
I guess beeing a bad actor equals beeing evil, today.
evil to die and hitle , osamapiladen
lol Stalin died in his bed in peace so all that religious nonsense is just lies lies and more lies.
Stalin died thrashing around on the floor for hours after having a stroke, while everyone stood outside the room studiously not noticing till they were absolutely sure beyond all possible doubt that he was dead. Which is alright by me.
Actually he suffered a stroke while alone in his room and was not discovered for an unknown number of hours (likely around 10) because he had given an order not to be disturbed. Doctors were immediately called, but took hours to arrive since this happened in his country house. He was then tended to, put in bed and died there several days later.
Where’s my picture? I demand an apology.
Aww, don’t worry.
Your picture takes up the whole backside.
I’d say that equally as annoying as bible-thumping religious freaks are the condescending atheists who try to be clever all the time even though they’re just parroting the same sh*t over and over too. Either extreme is really annoying to be around.
Thank you so much, there is absolutely nothing but truth to your statement.
I’d say that referring to the Bible has a much higher casualty tally than ahteism, which is probably why atheists keep diatribing against it.
Now you might argue that the people believing in it are responsible, not the book itself, but, you see, it set such examples …
as the totalitarian communist atheists who have created genocide to almost 100 million in the last century. It’s circular.
Thank you both for proving the OP’s comment to be truth.
The extremes bother me a bit, but I’m more annoyed by the arguments they make. Most annoying (to me) are atheists that say because some random bad thing happened then it proves God doesn’t exist, or why didn’t God stop random person from drowning. It’s like they have no clue at all as to how things work (to a christian, mind you) I don’t care if someone doesn’t believe in God, they should return the favor.
:lolchristians:
Oh yeah,
austrian/russian/chinese mass murdering dictators: When you need the s**t really done!
BTW. I’m missing Polpot there.
Why is osama in the middle? I think hitler should be in the middle, he was more evil than osama, he had the camps and all that jazz. Osama just hid and ordered people to do his dirty work.
Not one of those people dropped nuclear weapons on civilian populations either.
Nobody has dropped any Nukes on Civilians since the Geneva Convention. Prior to that it was normal practice in war to kill civilians with whatever you felt like using.
Hitler was christ, so he can’t be the top badguy of a church programm…
Where is Darth Vader?!?! He killed ALL OF ALDERAAN!!!
Did you notice?
Most of them are smiling.
It’s not just a random black guy, he was a Ugandan Dictator
Where’s George Bush on that cover??
Wow. I didn’t think it was possible to be more annoying than the first one. You sir, are the face of true evil.
Hey look, it’s Chairman Mao! I have a poster of that guy if he were a cat.
Meow Zedong?
Well that confirms my suspicions…
What did Daniel Day Lewis ever do to get on that cover?
Oh, finally someone’s taking care of Forest Whitaker.
Its Will Smith, Duh!!!!
