Think of someone of actual history that could use the lantern rings to a good extent, for example:

- Mother Teresa, Indigo Ring (compassion)
- Leon Trotski, Blue Ring (hope)

Try to keep it clean wink

Hitler- Yellow Ring
Stalin- Yellow Ring
Vlad The Impaler- Yellow Ring

All pretty good at inspiring fear.

Ohh, also- Simo Hayha aka The White Death- Blue and Yellow rings.

If you're not familiar with Simo- in WW2 Finland he killed over 705 Soviet Soldiers in 100 days, 542 of those with just a rifle with no scopes or anything. He took out a team of counter snipers sent after him, took out a group of soldiers sent after him, got carpet bombed and it only ripped his coat.

Oh, he got shot in the face with an exploding bullet, tearing half his face off, got back up and shot the guy who shot him face. He survived and woke up a week later.

The Soviets were so scared they called him The White Death ( Yellow Ring time) and he inspired/had hope of stopping the Soviets (Blue Ring)

I'm tempted to say he should have a Green Ring as well, as getting back up after getting shot in the face probably takes a lot of willpower.

Basically, that guy owns.

I can see a match for the first two. Why would Gore use a yellow one?

Because he keeps running around like Chicken Little, telling everyone the sky is falling. big grin

LOL. Is not fear, is concern.

TricksterPriest
Plus, he's actually right. If we don't stop wrecking the enviroment, the sky IS going to fall on our heads. Acid rain, mutations, skin cancer from lack of ozone layer, rising tides, etc.

Though I think blue or green suits him more. Yellow is much more in-line with Dick Cheney. big grin

It's malarkey and another way for Gore to make money off
fear-mongering.

You know Gore has his own jets and he owns huge SUVs.

Talk about a hypocrite.

Bill O'Reilly gets a Red Ring.

Inconvenient truth. Just because he's spreading fear for a good cause doesn't mean he isn't spreading fear.

I don't think you get awarded rings for just acting like what a ring wants.

Mother Theresa is not really as great as people say she was, she refused giving proper healthcare and aid to Africa because she thought their diseases were a punishment from God, meanwhile she had the best and most expensive healthcare for herself

I'll agree, she was and still is highly overrated.

Her image has been skewed.

Im not suprised to hear that (if its true), alot of these really ultra religous Christians are just ****ing hypocrites. Hell maybe she should get an orange ring.

Christians are all bad about it in general, as most humans are by nature anyway, but Catholics do quite often seem to be among the worst of the lot.

Again I'm not trying to say every single one but by far a great deal.
On both accounts.


I'm an atheist and don't care what you are or believe in. As long as it doesn't result in hurting others.
But don't belittle, talk down to, or judge me when your own religion basically tells you in the end to mind your own business. I don't even mind the discussion and debate over opinions and beliefs. In fact I love it.

Just as long as it can be civil and bottom line you can accept my side without getting angry about it.

My best friend has these two friends that are pretty deep into their religion and one I couldn't get alone better with and we talk about it for hours on end. Even having stayed up all thru the night till long after sunrise while everyone else passed out. But the other is an okay guy for the most part but I've never seen anyone get so loud and clearly upset to down right obnoxious and completely deny they are even doing it.

Christians aren't bad.

They are the ones who help the poor when the "compassionate liberals"
just sit back and do nothing.

Yeah...where the hell did this discussion just go? Keep it on topic, and let's tone down the bashing. Warnings will follow if unheeded.

Eh? Digi's cosplaying doesn't inspire fear, but hope!

some really evil popes from back in the day would have had the yellow, orange and for some weird reason blue ring a strange combination.
