If your father was a soldier who fought ISIS or the Nazi's and caused a great deal of pain to anyone wearing a Nazi or isis uniform could not not then accept his love? or do you cheapen his loving efforts because he has the balls to defend you and the rest of this nation from those who would see harm to come to you or that would hate you? do you hate your father because he was not 'progressive enough to have a random cross section of isis fighters and or anyone who hates you because you love him, into your home and have him try and force our lifestyle on those people?
Or are you truly smart enough to know that one man's hero is another mans boogeyman?
I have no problem loving the boogeyman if indeed I too were a boggy..
Now again before you shoot of some self righteous bs, know YOU And your leftist agenda is MY Boogie man. I like you could ask how can you love those who promote an unrighteous life style? But I am reminded that I can tolerate the boogiemen in my life because my father has extended me grace and commanded that I do the same.
Your implying that non belief is a grave crime that earn torture, like your bible suggests. Your Bibles ideas you like are trash.
oh how the self righteous can sing when they know not of themselves.
How many 9/11 style attacks has their been against the United states since 9-11-01? Do you think it is for a lack of trying? or is there a greater work happening here? a work greater than the faith of a radicalized muslim who firmly believes that if the die holding on to their plans their reward in the after life will be without measure. and if they give themselves up they will go to the deepest part of hell. do you think these guys just roll over after a few days of metalica being played a 11 or being made to eat bacon?
Look at france they have a no torture policy, and then ask how many attacks have the french people suffered? do you think it is because of the alantic ocean and radical islamists are afraid to boat over or fly?
Even the UK benefits from the intell we and our allies gather in the name of western civilization. to pretend that you do not live in a terrorist state is because radical islamists give u their buddies because they don't get 12 hours sleep a night and are made to eat bacon and eggs is beyond being naive.
You enjoy your freedom because someone's dad had to turn the screws on bad men in order to keep the rest safe. if you can't thank others for doing a job you could not do, then you should enjoy the freedom they provide us in silence.
I may not be in a position to judge a man wicked or not, but I do know there are men who can and do, all the more with an all knowing all powerful God. If either make such a determination then let hell fire and brimstone rain down on them forever. I care not what happens to ISIS fighters. and if you were honest with yourself you would say the same. The only reason you won't because in this scenario you become the ISIS fighter.
