Why be good?

[Thumpalumpacus]

First, thank you for your service to your country. I appreciate that very much. I also thank you for sharing your experiences with me.

A better way of showing your appreciation would be to avoid denigrating veterans with this foxhole atheist bullshit.

Second, is it reasonable for me to believe your personal testimony concerning what you experienced and reported in your written account above?

Here's my DD214: http://s6.tinypic.com/30s7pme.jpg

Here are my (mostly mundane) decorations, including my firefighter's badge: http://s6.tinypic.com/35jmt13.jpg

Here's the first airplane crash I worked: http://www.f-16.net/aircraft-database/F-...file/2395/

As for what I reported from my life-threatening situations, those are my experiences. Whether or not you believe them doesn't matter to me. But pray tell, how many foxholes have you been in? How many tight corners? How many times have you looked death in the face?

And most importantly, why would you assume that your response would be shared by everyone else, including atheists?

You cannot speak for me or millions of others, and I'd suggest to you that the wise course is to stick to blathering about your own superstition, and at the same time avoid imputing it to those whose experiences you do not know.
