Throwing out the religious war stat was an anciliary incindiary comment that has nothing to do with the topic at hand.

What does telling them have to do with anything? Of course I wouldn't pile onto a grieving family's pain. It doesn't make it untrue. Would I tell your family that you were a worthless alcoholic at your funeral? I wouldn't, but you are. See how that works?Tiernan;1495425 wrote:Today in Afghanistan most likely a couple of Americans died. Are any of you that making this distinction btwn Govt and Country going to tell those heroes families that they died supporting a worthless Govt instead of dying for their Country?
...yeah I didn't think so either assholes.
Stupid argument, even by your standards.

Perhaps it is incendiary but it seems relevant to the thread topic at hand...more people willing to die for something he considers a myth than a tangibly real thing like a person's native country.jmog;1495444 wrote:Mythical is an opinion.

I would not die for anything except my family. Not any country, religion, nor any other bs establishment is worth my life.
