I was NOT transported! I came here of my own free will.*

That's suspiciously close to Ned Kelly's story. Thinking

Kelly was native-born. His father was the transportee.

So what exactly is the subject of this topic? If it had to be summed up in one short sentence.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Same as last go round. The recently departed believed that law was a big con because it didn't do a thing no one thought it does. Additionally, he reckoned that society would be better off if it were organized around his favorite idea of act creation, apparently not realizing that this would just be a different set of laws.
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!

Maybe that's Boru's cover story.    Yaknow our banned short-term friend told us how smart he is.  

We are having a run of questionable new members lately...at least it's sort of, kinda entertaining to watch them implode.

Been a lot of banning on other sites lately, maybe we're getting refugees.

If so, they will be welcomed with open hammers.
