So, you feel that killing intentionally is worse than killing unintentionally?
That one develops less karma?
You point out the in your face, honestly out to kill you, armed and violent killer.
I watch hundreds of people kill other with a thousand paper cuts.
Or backstabbing someone after breaking their will / heart.
Both are just as dead. But one was honest, the other dishonest.
Until we cut the crap and start dealing with each other openly, then the shit that soldiers do is small potatoes.
I do not praise soldiers. I do not feel The US should be engaged overseas. However, we are not told the whole truth, so it is hard to see what is the real motivation.
It seems you are missing the point of my post.
This kind of statement makes any reply you say after it meaningless.
Since i wrote a lengthy reply, it is more likely that i read your article and replied with how i saw it differently.
Of course, i expect you to reply to my reply with, "that was not my point, my point was (try to say the point in another manner)" or "I see your point is Y, but i was trying to make point X."
Starting off with a put down is boorish. Of course i am going to disagree with you. (Unless i am just being a troll) My counter arguments are fuel to make your argument, logic and rhetoric stronger.
