Cool isn't it ... giving birth is what makes women unique, as well as equal ... especially in the eyes of the law, where it counts.
Did you notice he didn't quote that part?

Yeah.Our justification in dropping two bombs on Japanese cities was 'the further salvation of American lives.'
Giving birth to my children was the most life-affirming, most paradigm-shattering, most rewarding thing I ever did.
I almost feel sad that you'll never know what that's like.
We did. Immoral? For me, it is a bit larger than me. I have a hard time trying to intervene in war-ethics. I 'think' you count numbers, which is what our government did and you do what may save the most lives, even if you are taking others. I can't really give more than that because, as I said, I'm much like you in sentiment. I don't think you or I should necessarily be in charge of overseeing wars. I 'think' neither you nor I have the stomach for it.Dropping the bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was immoral. We killed over 100 thousand civilians.
True. Is a wife of an extremist, or the mother of an extremist innocent? :idunno: I am not cut out for making war decisions, just trying to express why the eye-for-eye decision exists and might necessarily (I don't know) need to be employed.Except you're not going after just the bully, you're going after the bully's wife and children.
I'm not sure we'd have no remorse, but yes, that's basically what this thread discussing, I believe.Isn't that exactly what's being advocated that we do?
Well it is biblical.Because I don't believe in spanking, the spare the rod spoil the child doesn't convince me.
Then you are stuck with Islam just continuing right along on their path of destruction, because the terrorists are going to be among the innocent.No, we don't sit on our hands, but I believe the other extreme, to wholesale kill innocent civilians to root out terrorists, is morally wrong.
I'm all ears.There has to be a rational third way.
We can lay blame with hindsight all we like, but the fact still remains that these terrorists are a HUGE problem and need to be dealt with no matter what the past holds.Terrorism is horrifying, and we can thank our past activities in the Middle East for destabilizing it and helping foster the environment in which it festered and grew.

Yep.I think, no bones about it, that it has got to be the hardest decision ever, and I'm just not made for this kind of thing.
Yep.
One needs to realize that any war that has ever happened had casualties.
I'm sure there were some Israelites that cringed at the thought of slaughtering every man, woman, and child in city (and their livestock too!).
But it needed to be done.
That's kinda the point.Yeah, as long as it's not you and you're family, bombs away
The reason God commanded these tribes be wiped out was so that they didn't evolve and multiply into something worse later on. We deal with those today who weren't taken out then.
But
With that being the case, you can't use that to justify taking out millions of people.
That's kinda the point.
Destroy them before they destroy you.
Does anyone really think that when they get nukes, they will not use them?
I'd rather we hit them first.
Men run away better than women in horror movies.There's nothing a woman can do that a man can't do better.
Men run away better than women in horror movies.
Women are always tripping and falling.
Thousands against thousands.The Israelites took out tribes that were only a few thousand deep at best.
Millions against millions.You're talking about millions of people, and a worldwide religion second to Christianity.
Thousands against thousands.
Millions against millions.
:rotfl:
There's so many things wrong with that statement, it's not even worth speaking further on.
It's okay ... no one expects you to actually contribute anything to a discussion outside of "it's the fault of women".
That smiley face sums up the accuracy of your *logic*.
Cool isn't it ... giving birth is what makes women unique, as well as equal ... especially in the eyes of the law, where it counts.
Let's go over it
Let's not and say we did.
Because I am such a sweet, considerate person, I will save you some time:
You have been running the same tired tirades and grudges for years. The reality is ... it's your issue to fix and has no bearing on anyone other than yourself.
You play one very well.Women are better acting as victims.
