According to the Bible, God is a ruthless tyrant who engaged in mass murder and genocide, slaughtering untold numbers of defenseless men, women, children, and babies. As best I can tell, God has repeatedly shown complete disregard for human life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.
Actually according to Christian beliefs or the ones I have read Satan is the ruler of the world until Christ returns and cast him into death for all eternity. I am not a theologian nor do I care to be one. Nor do I care to get into an argument over it. Discussing politics and religion can be asking for trouble but being appreciative of any freedom is a good thing and sometimes a person doesn't understand this until it is lost. Thank god we live in a country where discussing these topics wont lead to torture and death but only hurt feelings, some snide remarks and ostracism. I don't worship any government institution including the military but I do thank God for the good people who serve and put their butt on the line when they are needed to. I just wish the leaders of this country had the same moral fiber. Yes, stanc is keeping us honest again.
