i ran off with the one i have now in an alarming workplace scandal. she was my most productive employee and we both divorced our respective spouses to marry each other.

five kids and over 30 years later it has sort of settled into place as a serious realignment.

it was the best mistake i have ever made.

True enough for me, but I'd like to make a couple of penalty-free exceptions.

Greenblaze, I respectfully doubt that your minister has a direct line to Jesus. To claim that "Christ does not want this" does comply with Christian dogma.  On the other hand, Second guessing the mind of a person from 2000 years ago could be inexact.

For what it's worth, I agree that most of us do not wish to participate in the wanton destruction of another mans life or property.

Reasons to run away from Florida: Hurricanes, lightning, crocodiles, alligators, sinkholes, Donald Trump, other Trump family members, Ron DeSantis, Pam Bondi, long lines at Disney World.

But, I spent a little time in Saint Augustine once - thoroughly delightful! Key West ain't half bad, either.

The military have a right to have a faith.

Do military commanders in your opinion "have a right" to impose their faith on those they command?

Are you saying like a general is praying with his military staff junior to them and telling them how to conduct themselves or to think ? If this is it someone may pray for moral, but they cannot expect everybody to have their beliefs and also they should use the Christian faith to try and legitimise war. I spoke about this topic with a minister yesterday and they said that Christ does not want this and that Trump needs right minded thinking if he thinks that Christ has legitimised him to go to war.
