I really enjoyed those pics, Tex. Thank you for sharing.

As for the quote itself, it's from the Mauthausen internment camp. Admittedly it's word for word quote is this:

"If there is a God, he will have to beg my forgiveness."

My bad. I was merely trying to portray the meaning of the original sender, didn't know I'd be hounded to the details about what cell block it was in. Block C, by the way.

"I believe in god, even when he is silent" also carved into the wall of that same concentration camp. That separate but whole poem is quite depressing, actually.

Any reply about the rest of my post or we just going to ignore that happened?

Do you have a link to this quote?

Oh, that's right you only need proof for all things God. You are willing to believe any possibility out there that says there is no God or that a particular person hated God on blind faith alone.

Hey D-bag, I'd like to point out that you, without even knowing where the quote was physically located or even being able to recognize a computer graphic over the real thing, decided it didn't exist because it didn't fit with your own worldview. Maybe you should stop acting like you have a fucking intellectual leg to stand on, here. If anyone's employing faith here, it's you, but I guess believing one sided nonsense is sort of wound around the core of your being, isn't it?

And while we're at it, can the "you all just hate god" crap, you trembling waif.

Oh, and by the way, I notice that you focused in on the inscription itself, maybe to divert attention away from the fact that my dear Luckie's own personal experience proves you wrong on your broad, offensively general "there ain't no atheists in foxholes" shtick? Perhaps you'd like to do the honest thing and retract that, upon being given verifiable proof that it's wrong?

I did not decide anything I simply asked for "objective proof" and in my search I saw where the pic originated from. And look them up.

How is that any different that what you all have claimed to do with the bible?

Why is it ok to question God in such a way and not question people in the same way?

You bet! Glad you like them. I'm enjoying this Instructor job while I've got it, but, in two more years, it's right back to a squardron, and eventually, right back out to sea!

Right, that's why you were throwing around the word "faith," and accusing us of having an incommensurate requirement for proof regarding this as opposed to god claims. Not a great look, before you even knew a damn thing about the picture.

Quote:How is that any different that what you all have claimed to do with the bible?

Because when we do it, we're not leaping desperately to the defense of a presupposition we already have.

Quote:Why is it ok to question God in such a way and not question people in the same way?

See above. Also, just saying: extraordinary claims versus mundane ones. It's interesting you'll be okay with miracle claims, yet demand exacting evidence of this fairly mundane one. But isn't that always the way, with you guys? "Demand evidence, just... don't look at these god claims too closely..."

Listen here Drich. I gave you what you needed to look it up and if a book source and eye witness visitor accounts aren't good enough for you then I'd say take a long hard look at that book you consider Truth. I trust people who visit Mauthausen over your after-the-fact piece of fictional literature any day. Its not like my souls on the line after all, its a quote. Im not telling you to repent your sins over it or anything.
love how you yet again have yet to offer anything up but Dodge tactics the the actual message my post was portraying.

What are you a nazi? When did "freedom" mean we all must think as you do? When did serving this country entitle you to more "freedom" than anyone else. If you are going to wave the flag and soap box about what you've done to give me the right to say that I think then, have the courtesy to let me speak. Or be labeled a hypocrite.

To say every man and woman who has ever served in the military is a hero is a lie. There are pretenders out there who do not deserve the same honors as our combat vets, and when they take those honors or repersent the selfs as the honorable men and women who actually put themselves in harms way then something needs to be said, the line needs to be redrawn, again to seperate posers from the actually men and women who serve on the front lines.

Not the support troops do not deserve honor or distinction. They are not to be held in the same light even amongst themselves as those who actually fight and die for this country. To do so robs the men who have fought and died of the honor due them. They can not speak against this dishonorable practice, so I will.. Even if it ruffles the feathers of a few a-holes who think their service to this country calls for the personal worship of every man woman and child, no matter what they did.
(Good or bad)

The simple fact is not every man who serves this country is a hero. Some are the exact opposite. To stereotype everyone on the works and actions of a few is not right. In that way all secondary troops should be willing to set a place of honor above and beyond the honor due them for those combat troops who stand between them and the bad guys as well, not take the honor from those men and award it to themselves.

So that when someone asks you a question about God you can answer first in such a way, as to later look it up and find it written the same way.

Why do I get the feeling you think you can sway me somehow?

Look, Drich, you might as well be trying to sell me healing crystals, because your claims are on part with those. Like I said, everyone that tries to sell me on the idea that they know the path to god has nothing but nonsense to stand on, as you have just demonstrated..

(August 27, 2013 at 11:07 pm)Drich Wrote: that after life there is only emptiness. No God.

I don't follow, because I don't believe there is emptiness after life. I believe there is non-existence, which is entirely different.
