Now I understand why he doesn't give a fück about amputees. It's for their own good. Niceeeeee
grin

Perhaps the fact that we do not live in a perfect world....but that God gives us the means to cope with that imperfect world as well as the brains to make the life of the amputee better.and the ability to feel empathy for those who are weaker than us...as well as a lesson in how insignificant we are (even the concept of the multiple universes makes me feel insignificant).and even as a warning against the disasters and evil that led to the amputation in the first instance.....then God does care about amputees.

Japan isn't exactly godless....most of the population practices Shintosim and Buddhisim.

Sweden and Denmark do have state churches...and Christianity played a large role in their growth as nations.(although most of the population is not religious).

You want a real godless society...try China(majorly atheist).
So what role has godlessness played in China's civilization?

Whoever you are, whatever your religion, you are answerable to the Lord Jesus Christ. Time will tell, but I pray it will favour you.

Ayatullah: THEN LET AMERICA CHANGE HER NATIONAL MOTTO: IN GOD WE TRUST
America will soon destroy herself with her so-called freedom..........Gay rights, Gay marriage, Marrying animals etc..........America is losing her soul. I wonder why they cannot emulate some of their responsible past leaders like Abraham Lincoln. Abraham Lincoln was so close to God that he dreamt of how he will die, and it came to be. America is on the way to self destruction. Looking forward to when they will change their national motto of IN GOD WE TRUST.

My dear, they do not trust in God, they trust in their selves and their technology.

When you join the army, dear boy, you do t expect to come back alive.

The ''so help me God'' is the soldier saying ''I will perform my duties as a soldier with God's help even if I do not survive in the process''

You obviously think the Armed Forces are all about posing in those nice dress uniforms. No, son....it is , as the gladiators oath in ancient rome implies, a place for men to die.

Ave, Imperator, morituri te salutant !

So much nonsense on social media. Men are now measuring up with God. When men fail, they blame God. It's going to be like a dream. You will face your maker one day.

hungryboy: How many who utter those words has god helped?,
i bet majority of american airmen who lost their lives in iraq and afghanistan uttered those words
You don't have to be an Airman in combat in Iraq,Afghanistan or against ISIL to die. You can die on the road,at work,in your toilet or on your bed. You will die whether you believe in God or choose to vilify His name. Atheists die. Christians die. Muslims and Jews die. Sikhs and Buddhists die. You will die irrespective of saying "so help me God" or not saying so. "So help me God" as embedded in oaths doesn't mean you shall not die. It is a personal belief, a religious conviction that your thoughts and actions be guided by a Supreme Being you believe in to achieve your objectives. In respect to freedom of religion,choice and association, the U.S. Air force chose to expunge that comment from the oaths. Respect our "foolish" choice to say SO HELP ME GOD!
