like i said before, the oath is really directed to the current government and its military branch. what do you think would have happened to those soldiers if they would have said" sir i dont think i want to kick down my fellow Americans door, drag them into the street, place them in cuffs, and take their guns"...answer thatedit on 15-1-2013 by k1k1to because: (no reason given)edit on 15-1-2013 by k1k1to because: (no reason given)
I pledged to both defend the constitution from enemies foreign and DOMESTIC, but I also swore to obey the president. But based on what I currently see, they contradict each other.... So how can I possibly keep my oath?

Matthew 6:24
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Take it to the lord brother, there is a story in the bible where another great man had the same dilemma. Seek the lord and he will direct thy path. I do not remember the name of the guy in the story but I do remember he sought the lord and the lord did guide him through this dilemma.
I hope this helps.
We might not understand God's judgement but he is in control, Remember that ok.
2 Chronicles 20:6
And said, O Lord God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven? and rulest not thou over all the kingdoms of the heathen? and in thine hand is there not power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee?edit on 16-1-2013 by OldSchoolMom because: (no reason given)
God is not gong to way in on this one, and doesn't really belong in the conversation.
I'm not trying to argue your religion, nor take away anything from your post. Many people have religions and some claim that it's the cause of most wars. Any country is going to fall no matter what religion they believe in. The united states is made of pagans, christians, athiest, muslims, etc,etc. Religion has no right being in political matters.

If your President has acted unlawfully, then he is an enemy of The Constitution.
Even the president must obey the Constitution, or he is guilty of mutiny, right?
The Constitution establishes the office of President,
The President did not draft The Constitution!
