Well, you have to understand how moral blindness works. Jesus spoke of that when he said “Don’t point out the little speck in your neighbor’s eye and overlook the beam in your own eye.”

How is it many pro-life Christians support the death penalty, are staunchly pro-military and pro-war, while many pro-choice people (who are somehow okay with terminating a life) are opposed to the death penalty and are anti-military and anti-war?

Christians are some of the meanest, most heartless people you’ll ever find–cause they believe God likes it that way.

Support Israel no matter what and screw the Palestinians? Christians do.

Don’t forget these are the people that used the Bible to uphold slavery and racism.

Religion is a tool to get what you want; just ask the two Presidential candidates.

Christianity does something about sin’s power but doesn’t take it away completely. Other religions may have you strive or deny yourself in order to achieve another level of realization. Yet Christianity has this purging quality to it that strikes deep into the power of sin and renders it ineffective.

What strikes me about this isn’t so much that it’s anti- atheist. It’s that it’s anti- any religion other than Christianity. It’s like, sure, those other religions have something going for them — but Christianity is so much better! If you want to root out that sin, soldiers, Christianity is the religion you really want to go with!

What’s the term for that? “Establishment of religion”? Something like that.

Anyway, the man is violating his oath. I’m not sure what the cost is for such an infraction or even if it will be enforced. Oh well…

Also, am I the noly on that finds it funny that it makes the claim to be more effective in fighting sin? Isn’t killing people a mortal sin?

I just heard that Petraeus is leaving the Iraq command, so wishing that he lose his command is moot. As for the court martial, holding one’s breath until that happens is not recommended.
