Re: After all what happened, can GOD bless America?

Yes, what those soildiers did is terrable-and blessig people by nation is stupid. But can you judge a whole nation for that? I've met bad Americans and Good Americans-a mate of mines dad was one of the nicest, bravest, funnyist men I've ever met yet he was a US Marines sargent-major and forght in Vietnam. Was he a bad man? By the same side of the coin I've met Americans who I couldn't stand. Its the same with any nation-its the same with English people, Chinise people, the French adn so on.

What is an "honorific" crime?

Is someone misusing a title of respect?



You Aussies crack me up.

My God gave me a warning, and made it clear he wasn't playin'. The warnings you speak of are acts of men, not God. (IMO)

You forgot about his/her being in the USA on a "tour for PhD studies", too. The virtual moving is a lot cheaper than real moving.
