[QUOTE="Bez__, post: 1133085, member: 22126"] I have a story about athiests for you. I was there. In a country that I was not supposed to be in. In a small OP that no longer exists and in a place that has no record of me being there. I was patrolling every day. The little Jewsih Rabbi from another very small unit would stand at the gate and bless us as we went out - but only if we wanted one. I am not Jewish but every day as convoy commander I would stop - walk over and ask for his blessing. Several who were there used to chide me as they would state - Quote - "There is no God - stop wasting our time". My philosophy is as follows: [i]There might not be a God but I pray to one. Never turn down a blessing, as you never know when it might come in handy.[/i] One day we were to patrol into a village and capture a truly bad man. When we got there we came under heavy fire. When it was all over and done we walked into the village - every man, woman, child and animal in that village had been killed with a machete. A complete wipe out of life. Not a pretty picture. The next day when I went over to get my blessing - the entire crew came with me. Easy to trash talk someone about their beliefs until you actually have an experience. All religious groups are schitte to me. I do my praying in the field. But those who trash those who believe - I am happy to take them with me to see what their entitled lives have protected them from. Let the atheists have their "consultant" - just tell them to shut the heck up when someone else has a belief. And watch what happens to many of them when they are exposed to life outside their protected sphere. Out of this thread now. Best to all Bez__ [/QUOTE]
