The one who did this survey is really stupid! Vlad Tepes was NOT evil, he was FAIR, which is completely different. The guy who included him in this survey has no idea of Romania's history. Vlad Tepes was, is and will always be a HERO for the Romanian people, as well as for the entire European continent, which he defended against the Turks. All the castles built in Italy, Spain, etc...wouldn't exist if it wasn't for him. Stupid, stupid, million times stupid... Romanian attitudes Romanian folklore and literature, on the other hand, paints Vlad Țepeș as a hero. His reputation in his native country as a man who stood up to both foreign and domestic enemies gives him the virtual opposite symbolism of Stoker's vampire. In Romania he is considered one of the greatest leaders in the country's history, and was voted one of "100 Greatest Romanians" in the "Mari Români" television series aired in 2006. A contemporary portrait of Vlad III, rediscovered by Romanian historians in the late 19th century, had been featured in the gallery of horrors at Innsbruck's Ambras Castle. This original has been lost to history, but a larger copy, painted anonymously in the latter half of the 16th century, now hangs in the same gallery.[1][2] This copy, unlike the cryptoportraits contemporary with Vlad III, seems to have given him a Habsburg lip, although he was not a member of the Habsburg lineage. His image in modern Romanian culture clashes with foreign perceptions. It is the last part of a rather popular 19th century poem by Mihai Eminescu, "Scrisoarea a III-a", that helped turn Vlad's image into modern legend, by having him stand as a figure to contrast with presumed social decay under the Phanariotes and the political scene of the 19th century (even suggesting that Vlad's violent methods be applied as a cure). Notably though, the first author to depict Vlad as a Romanian heroic character was a Transylvanian who probably never travelled to Wallachia, Ioan Budai-Deleanu. Around 1800 he wrote a Romanian epic heroicomic poem, "Țiganiada", in which prince Vlad Țepeș stars as a fierce warrior fighting the Ottomans. Well in advance of Romanian literature at that time, this work, unlike Eminescu's, remained unpublished and ignored for a century, and did not exert any influence. All accounts of his life describe him as ruthless, but only the ones originating from his Saxon detractors paint him as sadistic or insane. These pamphlets continued to be published long after his death, though usually for lurid entertainment rather than propaganda purposes. It has largely been forgotten until recently that his tenacious efforts against the Ottoman Empire won him many staunch supporters in his lifetime, not just in modern day Romania but in the kingdoms of Hungary, Poland, the Republic of Venice, the Holy Seat, and the Balkans. A Hungarian court chronicler reported that King Matthias "had acted in opposition to general opinion" in Hungary when he had Vlad Tepes imprisoned, and this played a considerable part in Matthias reversing his unpopular decision. During his time as a "distinguished prisoner" before being fully pardoned and allowed to reconquer Wallachia, Vlad was hailed as a Christian hero by visitors from all over Europe.
I know you are being serious, and you think you are clever, but you are really just a short-sighted dumbass.
I think Stellabloo is hot!
I suggest you read Jack Weatherford's book on GK. To quote Publishers Weekly: In just 25 years, in a manner that inspired the blitzkrieg, the Mongols conquered more lands and people than the Romans had in over 400 years. Without pausing for too many digressions, Weatherford's brisk description of the Mongol military campaign and its revolutionary aspects analyzes the rout of imperial China, a siege of Baghdad and the razing of numerous European castles. On a smaller scale, Weatherford also devotes much attention to dismantling our notions of Genghis Khan as a brute. By his telling, the great general was a secular but faithful Christian, a progressive free trader, a regretful failed parent and a loving if polygamous husband. With appreciative descriptions of the sometimes tender tyrant, this chronicle supplies just enough personal and world history to satisfy any reader.
The choices are kind of weak. Where for example is Reinhard Heydrich?
The most evil has yet to come,we just dont know about him/her/it YET....
Anybody who doesn't understand the role the Bible played in the development of Western culture and thought is beyond painfully stupid. Modern science is a product of Western religious thought.
Where are Dick Cheyney and George Bush? Spending thousands of lives and billions of dollars just so their oil buddies can profit counts as pretty dammed evil in my book.
Anybody who believes in the Bible, is just painfully stupid.
Evil is a pretty "Relgious" word IMO, I have very little use for it at all. Is the Black Plague "Evil"? No, don't think so - its a product of Nature. I voted Mao, probably because of my age group and personal experience. My belief is that one "evil" act is the same as a million on the spirit. Its the horror of any of this that affects us. And some not.
Where is Dick Cheney???
Exactly, the rest of them imho are ordinary psychopaths in positions of power. Torquemada was not only psychopathic but he was convinced that torturing and burning people was a form of kindness - because it 'saved their souls' . That line of reasoning is more than just unchristian, it's Evil...
Tomas de Torquemada, because he was cruel in the name of God, which in my book makes it even more devilish.
Think on this....Not one of these named completed many of these acts without the complicity and cooperation of large numbers of fellow evildoers...they were not lone serial killers....they were the more acceptable kind...rich,ruling or seeking to rule....
Way to take the "The Devil we don't know" quote out of context. He was using an old saying, "The devil you know versus the devil you don't". He's obviously not saying hes the devil. He is saying that the policied that McCain support are already known to be bad for our country, while his proposed policies have yet to be tested and judged as good or bad. Its so easy to misinterperet what people say so that they fit in with your view of that person.
I have always believed that evil is..............just like preposterous is.....that it is of itself.To harm another human being, that is to make them suffer is of itself evil
I believe that Genghis told his comrades: "Man's greatest good fortune is to chase and defeat his enemy, seize his total possessions, leave his married women weeping and wailing, ride his gelding, use his women as a nightshirt and support, gazing upon and kissing their rosy breasts, sucking their lips which are as sweet as the berries of their breasts."
I once read that Genghis Khan's murder, rape, and pillage were terrible, but that the real measure of his brutality was in burning fields of crops, buildings, and supplies. Starvation, disease, and homelessness multiplied his impressive campaign of death into the hundreds-of-millions. A recent study suggested that roughly 8% of all chinese men carry the same Y chromosome -- believed to be Genghis Khan's. Now that's a lot of rape!
Vlad promoted disemboweling and rectal and facial impalement. Didn’t he also impale virtually all the people in the city of Amlas – many, many thousands of men, women and children? He also ordered people to be skinned, boiled, buried alive…
I believe Mao Tse-tung killed somewhere between 20 and 67 million of his countrymen, including the elderly and intellectuals. The resulting anarchy, terror, and paralysis completely disrupted the urban economy. Industrial production for 1968 dipped 12 percent below that of 1966.
That's why I voted for him.
who is my crush
Vlad Tepes was not only bent on genocide, but he made sure all the deaths were as long, painful and protracted as possible.
How quaint. The Far Right is really scraping the bottom of the barrel in trying to smear him. -Of course, WHOEVER is in power, somebody is saying that THEY are the antichrist... There is one insane old woman here in Melbourne, who, in the 90s, was going on about how the Pope and Clinton were the antichrist. She said the apocolypse was going to be 2000. Then she started going about the New Pope and George W Bush and Tony Blair...[sarcasm] I think she has lost some credibility[/sarcasm]
HITLER or the countess but vlad, hes cool
Is Mao Tse-tung considered evil? I mean - sure, he's responsible for lots of dead people, but I wouldn't put him in the same ranks as those others...
IMHO Hitler was most evil.
