  • I remember in boot camp at Great Lakes seeing a huge mural of this image of Jesus standing behind a sailor. That was back in the 70's and I wonder if they still have it now that political correctness has infected the military.

    Its a gay looking picture, thats why its not used anymore. If it helps, imagine Jesus as Bruce Jenner. Get it. You can't grab another mans shoulder while he's bent over like that. No wonder gays want in the military, its all Jesus' s fault.

    The picture represents God's guidance. Imagine this thread being about a general who an atheist group wants court martialed because he spoke of God's guidance in his life...well you don't really have to imagine that because that is what this thread is about.

  • We could have a "Kick a Puppy" day where kicking puppies is encouraged. That doesn't make it any better...

    But yes, "kids table", "finger painting", very cute. I guess when your only defense is "Well, so, you're younger than me!" I can't expect much out of you. In the way of reasoning or insults.

    Well so far it's proven true. You can't distance yourself from the 13 yr old "I'm skipping Sunday school to play pacman at the arcade" mentality when it comes to discussing religion / Christianity.

    Challenge yourself to apply an incremental amount of context to what he's saying, e.g. where he is/his audience and you might actually be able to grasp the frustration of the OP. It was a totally voluntary meeting, not a duty assignment. The athiest group doesn't really have a leg.

    But no wait- compare it to a "kicking puppies day" or whatever JV analogy you'd like. Hyperbole looks good on you so far. πŸ˜•

  • That atheist group is ridiculous, by the way. I mean, the guy is basically saying he's used the force to hit the right targets (or whatever), which wouldn't fill me with confidence, but as long as he's doing his job, and doing it well, who the fuck cares. Court-marshalled? Ridiculous.

    Yeah but what if Vader used the Darkside of the Force to force-choke a puppy?

    Doesn't make it right.

  • At this stage in our conversation I think it is clear you've missed the original point, leading to your continued attempts to insult me. All I can say is try rereading it.

  • This is where Woody tucks his tail between his legs and leaves because he has no argument.

  • Woody, you can't even follow the OP.

    All we got from you was your blowhard "Christian bad/ science good" take.

    It sucks.

  • Thank you for continuing to prove my point.

  • If that's what you think... Then sure. This whole "thing" is born out of your lack of reading comprehension ability.
