What I said at the time was that the American military, like the American government, was a secular entity guided by Christian principles. Which is, of course, reflected in our government's deistic orientation in most of its official literature. This still has no bearing on the point, of course.
No, I'm pretty sure you advocated for American soldiers dying in the interests of serving directly Christian interests and were A-OK with the creeping Christian conservative idea that American soldiers should be crusaders with say, psalms inscribed on their rifle scopes, which makes you both 1. awful, 2. a traitor to the founding principles of the nation, and 3. deserving of the title America-Hater.
As somebody who at a point in the past did, in fact, seriously take the oath to defend the nation, the fact that you view military personnel, and thus by proxy past-me, as cannon-fodder to promote your beliefs, I take umbrage to your opinion and frankly I've hated you ever since. I decided you were trolling me in the recent past, but since you've acknowledged you were serious, I'll go on hating you and everything you stand for.
I mean, if you wanna talk about asking around, it's not like anyone really likes you after years of being insulted by you, even if they respect your intellect. Maybe you should try being a little more respectful?
oh no u didn't1 It's cute that you think I care what you think, as if I'd be calling you to the carpet for holding reprehensible opinions if I did. Wait, how meta is that? Is it Meta-2, or Meta-3?
Please though, do tell us more about how we should bankrupt our nation to bring Jesus to Syria. You'll have to work hard to sway the Baq2Iraq vote.
Nevertheless, I would encourage you to try.
What part of "I would defect from the program" are you unable to understand? I've said it twice. You are either incapable of comprehending it, or are simply not listening.
I don't believe there's merit to any program of mass-murder and international belligerence. You could just as easily ask me what a Russian policy-maker should do about Ukraine. Well, I guess they should cave to the ultranationalist wing of the government too. I mean Putin's got 80% approval ratings and hey, non-Russians don't vote, better fire some more GRADs at the stupid "Homonazi" Maidan Junta!
