Re: USA is the land of the Devil !

Ah, then it makes it perfectly okay to kill 200.000 people

This is gonna shock you, but even without the sarcasm smiley face I kinda knew you weren't actually okay with the 200,000 people killed thing.

Its not about who would win and who would loose - its about being evil, and killing people because you think thats the right way.

I don't know how old you are, but you are aware that the Axis powers needed to be stopped, don't you? It's so amazingly easy for all sorts of people to second guess the actions of the men and women who were in the grips of some terrible circumstances which required some very brave and not always comfortable responses.

I thought God was against killing?

Have you even READ the Bible? Any Bible?

God has people killing all the time on His behalf! God manages quite well with plagues and floods and fire and brimstone, but sometimes He wants to include His followers so they feel they are contributing something to His cause.

Oh, and no one in the Bible was ever killed with a gun. which leads us to . . .

If no one has guns, wouldnt that make the world a much better place? You would fear to get shot, when walking down the street.

That one is older than dirt. The world was a violent place long before guns were invented. Believe it or not, violence existed even before we evil Americans came along and destroyed all goodness and beauty and freedom of thought and started breaking into everyone's houses on Christmas morning so we could kick their puppies down the stairs. . . Really, we have a special elite force of puppy kickers attached to the Marines.

Oh, by the way, a lot of those inter-ethnic attrocities in Africa are committed with machetes. They don't kill quite as quickly as a gun, but they sure do spread a lot more blood!

Oh, and when you've spent a little more time with your Bible, THEN we can discuss my Christian creds.

Peacefully Yours,

200,000 people! That's nothing, God flooded the entire world. Everyone but Noah and his wife ad kids died.

That is distorted version of events, the truth can be found the the REAL Gospel:

The Flood

Then the FSM saw that the wickedness of Man was great on the earth, and that every thought of the little midget was ruled by his stomach.
Then the FSM said, “Fine, I’ll just cook for myself,” and He produced a great Colander of Goodness and He did collect water in an enormous pot, which he heated; and He did drop in a heaping portion of pasta and slowly simmer the sauce for so long that the original humans weren’t even around anymore when He was finally ready to eat. And He poured the spaghetti and water into the Colander of Goodness, careful to make sure the water went down the drain of His sink. And as He was eating, He vacantly considered where the drain did empty, and the FSM said, “Uh oh.”
Luckily, Noah and Noah’s sons, Ham, Cheese, and Omel, and Noah’s wife and the three wives of his sons with them, had been working on “Big Noah’s Floating Menagerie,” which was to be housed in a giant ark of Noah’s design. On that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the drains of the heavens were opened. And the rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights, and the ark did float but it did stink.
After several battles with Pirates, the ark did finally rest on Mount Ararat, and when the waters receded it was a long walk home for Noah and his family. And no one could locate the unicorn pair, but they did discover Noah’s son Ham in a back chamber of the ark, picking his teeth with an oversized toothpick that remarkably resembled a horn.

And...

Of course is was not all good times. Not everyone was a believer, and some rejected His Word and felt the need to go out on the ocean in their own (probably lame) ships and pick fights with the Pastafarians. Most notable was Noah, of biblical fame, who slapped together a monstrous barge made of wood and whatever else was around – probably dirt, who knows? Noah, well known for his love (Perverted coveting) of animals, always had plenty around. So when he found himself with a lack of building materials, he decided to use hundreds of defenceless animals as ballast – mainly the slowest, dumbest, and most dense that he could come across.

It’s not known exactly what occurred during this time of Noah and the Pirates, but enough historical texts have survived through the years to get a rough picture of the events that transpired. Noah, alone except for his animals/ballast, propelled by jealousy and maybe a group of talking seals, set forth in search of Pastafarians. Unfortunately for Noah, he found one of the most bad-ass Pirate ships around, and started talking way too much smack. The Pastafarians, being above all peaceful, and maybe drunk, ignored his verbal abuse. It was only when Noah, ever the dick, physically attacked the Pastafarian ship by hurling from his bow the pointiest of animals ( Possibly these were porcupines. Also, some scholars believe that Noah might have hurled stab-rabbits, a since extinct species of rabbit possessing weaponlike points all over its body. Despite their love of sex, the stab-rabbits ultimately went extinct because they could not bring themselves to go through with copulation, the pain being too great – much like modern-day men who are married to fatties.) that the Pastafarians took notice. We are told that the largest, scariest of the Pastafarians swam, or maybe just jumped, from ship to ship – they were that powerful – and confronted Noah.

Immediately seeing the error of his ways, Noah offered some turtles or something as way of apologizing. The Pastafarians probably having plenty of their own turtles, ( Giant ones for riding) said no to the deal, and proceeded to intimidate the bejesus out of Noah. We don’t know exactly what was said, but it’s clear that Noah wet himself to such an extent that even the Christians associate him with “the Great Flood” (Although they have wisely developed another description of events.) Needless to say, he never mistreated animals again – not even chickens, who are pretty much asking for it. (There are no mentions of Pirates or grog, and only a few of wenches in the Christian Bible.)
