Nothing in this blog can be believed. If you think that anything in this blog is true or factual, you'll need to verify it from another source. Do you understand? No? Then read it again, and repeat this process, until you understand that you cannot sue me for anything you read here. Also, having been sucked into taking part in the mass-murder of more than 3 million Vietnamese people on behalf of U.S. Big Business "interests", I'm as mad as a cut snake (and broke) so it might be a bit silly to try to sue me anyway...

So why is it that we're trying to impose our culture on other 'inferior' cultures? Why do we condemn other cultures?

Calixto, you have this knack of pretending that you're not responsible for, and that you can't change what your government does to the rest of the world and yet you keep singing the praises of American democracy and freedom.

"I'm not responsible for what my country does". Well I say that with democracy comes your co-responsibility for what your country does. Hence the "we".

Hey, I dunno why it said "Anonymous". That was me, Gerry talking.

Stop agreeing with me, Jeff, it only encourages me. :-)

As for Christians being willing to die for their faith, let's hope not. We've already got far too many muslims and zionists willing to die for their expansionist faith. This whole shit about being willing to die for your "cause" or "faith" can easily be parlayed up into a war of righteousness (now there's an oxymoron). A pacifist willing to die for her/his cause by waging Ghandiesque passive resistance, now THAT would be the right kind of courage. That would be true Peaceful People Power. That would also be true Jesusianity. ;-)
