If you think Jesus would ever say or condone such a thing yes you are
way wrong. I don't believe that is the case here.



'War is peace, love is hate' seems to be the message here

Believe it or not, I just said something about what is going on here on a thread by chaos. To the fact that right now we are seeing more and more of this
upside down, white is black day is really night type philosophies arise.
I see this as Satans attempt to turn everything upside down. Yes
this is another prophecy of the last days. Heaven is really hell is
what they will soon be getting at, you mark my words, this is where that is going k?

Excuse me, what I should have said was mark Gods word.

You miss my point

I said I don't believe that is the case here. I don't believe I missed your
point. where who what why which?
I chose to elaborate on another part of what you were saying that's
why the confusion?

K. Masqua surely you can see I never said you were way wrong. Now
read it the way I meant it.
See the first word there?
Don't they say if is a mighty big word?

I don't think you are wrong at all now.
I started my sentence that way "in case" so I could then go against you
as now you can see, I'm not at all.

Are we clear?

Could it be a form of not so "subliminal" messaging or conditioning? When the guys see messages like that it makes them feel better about doing what they have been "sent" to do?
I am not saying that being in Iraq or Afghanistan is right or wrong, that is a complete different thread, but you could have guys who don't feel great about where they are and what they have done and this somehow subconsciously makes it easier for them to carry on.

To respond to your point,this is the bomb.

Perhaps it's to remind troops that it is a "holy war" of sorts.

Christians have been "At war" with Muslims for a long, long time.
Perhaps it's a subtle (or not so subtle) way of making them think that what they are doing is right and good.


Who knows... it is very odd.


What about the non-religious soldiers, do they really want to see Biblical quotes?

Or perhaps the soldiers of other faiths?




Oh well.... now I've read the thread (i know, usually helps) i see that most these points i raise, have been mentioned by others.. apart from the holy war one.

Never mind.

I agree, but I must add that having served in the military and having been involved in the war here in Namibia as an 18 year old I often couldn't help but think how I would feel if I was in the position of having to shoot someone else, I was never in that situation even though I did my time in war zone. I didn't agree with the war but we had to serve a compulsory 2 year national service, which I did, and I would have shot if I had had to but I know it would still be haunting me today!
It was just a thought!

No. I don't mean that. I don't believe it would apply in the case of a man who'd chosen or been forced to don a military uniform and carry arms

What I was suggesting was along the lines of, 'Don't shoot for fun. This is not a game. Fire only if there's no other choice ...' (which might cause the soldier to consider his choices, to hold fire unless it were absolutely necessary, etc., to be a 'soldier of principle' )

I read somewhere that the founder of the company which makes the equipment was a believer


IF this is true, it certainly is a different can of worms.
Good post.

Isn't that what's drilled into us from the first days of training? Yes, I've been in the military.

I would not like to see that in my scope no more than seeing it inscribed on arty shells. Myself, and others in the military of many other countries, may not be of the same faith. Such inscriptions would be acceptable only to those who firmly believe in the Christian faith.
