Religion and mental illness - not good bedfellows.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition

Does anyone else see that and think that terrorists are getting lazy?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Or brothers, rather like Death and Sleep

Just so you know, the phrase is translated accurately - Allah is greatest.
Why doesn't the media tell the truth about that?

The truth about what? The accurate translation, or the greatness of Allah?

And YHWH of the OT keeps waving his foam finger and yelling I'm number One, I'm number One!
Compensating perhaps?
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh
