Any being, capable of fucking me up beyond imagination, deserves my fear. Kinda' like gravity. Yeah....that too.

That was at a party that General Rashid Dostom (most powerful warlord in the North of Afghanistan) threw for my team. I had lost some weight at that time because I stayed sick a lot. About 5 months into the deployment. I had to take cipro about every week or so to kill the paracites. It was rough. We clorinated our own water but it wasn't enough. Every meeting we ever had with a General, subcommander, on down entailed drinking tea and sometimes dining with them. You had to do it but it was rough on our weak American systems used to the good life back here. I was always a lightweight, though. I've never weighed more than I do now (~168lbs). The picture was taken in 2002. I'm better looking now! By the way, I have no idea how I got from the party hall where that picture was taken back to Dostom's hotel. It was a good night!

Fear in the biblical sense means reverence or deep respect for.

Armageddon?

True. To many it is.

How so? It doesn't say that religion cannot or should not be in government. It just says that the government cannot force you to believe or follow one in particular.

The French can kiss my derriere. Well...not mine exactly but I kind of liked this one.

1st Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. A law respecting an establishment of religion would be one in which you’d be forced to adhere to a particular religion. Creating or maintaining a religious symbol does not force you into a particular religion nor does it prohibit you from worshiping or not worshiping how you wish.

My kids go to a private Christian school. They're also taught science. One does not trump the other.

Do you believe in magic?

Don't know if that was what he was trying to do. I was just curious if he'd get some honest and direct answers. It seems like there's always a huge amount of resistance when it comes to this topic. I guess you could make it a loaded question. He was speaking hypothetically. I think you answered it.

How about for you personally? I think that's what Airmail 1270 was trying to get at. 1. Happy? 2. Disappointed?

I like the colorful language of the KJV in this instance. It really brings new life to "taking a shit in the woods." Very appropriate for "tent livin."

As part of your equipment have something to dig with, and when you relieve yourself, dig a hole and cover up your excrement. Deuteronomy 23:13 Dude…….you ain’t right! Edited to add: And all this time I thought that originated in my Ranger Handbook.

They're afraid to answer this hypothetical question directly even when faith is taken out of the equation. The “dark side of the force” is strong. I would think that knowing what’s going to happen to you when you die would be something everyone would want to know. I mean, we’re speaking hypothetically here. Not really sure where this is leading because it’s all futile without an element of faith. But, like he said, “if you could know”, what would you choose? How about this: IF God is not real; IF the Bible is not true; IF Jesus is not who he claimed to be; and, most importantly... IF it was possible to prove this beyond all doubt... Would you be happy or disappointed?

Exactly! Our good buddy in France, Jacques Chirac, called him a "brave statesman" after his death. I call him a terrorist.

Surely you're not serious... -
And Bush says no draft??? What do you call this?
pajarito replied to Segador's topic in Speakers Corner
Ok....that's bizarre. Edited to add: Geez...I am the most gullible person on the planet. Hit that post button a bit too quick. I didn't even see the link you posted. I glanced at it and went straight to snopes. Ok....I feel like quite the jackass right now. I admit it. Damnit...I hate when that happens. -
I used to eat there all the time until my wife, son, and I all got food poisoning. We were at the one in Augusta, GA. We were up all night throwing our guts up. One of the most miserable times I've had. Haven't been able to bring myself to go back. That was 4 years ago. Sorry, I should save all my negative talk for SC. "If you can't say anything nice in Bonfire, you shouldn't say anything at all." How boring. Good luck on your choice!

Sounds like you've already given up in your mind and accepted defeat. I'm glad someone like that isn't in charge. Sounds kind of like Madonna.

That's awsome! You quote seriously from a site called "rotten.com."
-
Don't know but it sounds like he's been listening to PeacefulJeffrey too much. "Fuck weasle." Now that's a very creative name.

Was that my feminine side coming out or something?

I'd kill for chocolate!

Whatever dude. I think the security of the US with regard to terrorist attack specifically during this term of service following 9-11 is rellevant to measuring his success or failure. I mean, that's a big part of his job these days, right? Anyway, it's a resignation letter. You should celebrate!
