Vanity Fair Article on Sniper

[fx77]

Yes I admit I read this rag...a gift to my spouse from her lib uncle

Article this month on a Sniper...
Seems the author could not understand exactly how he could ply his skill..but the article was heavy on his Christian Faith which enables him to deal with his responsibilities. Would like to hear what all y'all think.

Re: Vanity Fair Article on Sniper

Christians who think they are doing the Lord's work are kidding themselves. Just admit you're killing and to kill is to judge, to judge death is to enact vengeance for a grievance or offense. Vengeance is not ours. I don't subscribe to it, but I like consistency.

to quote john prine: "Your flag decal won't get you into Heaven anymore, it's already overcrowded from your dirty little war, now jesus dont like killin' no matter what the reason's for, your flag decal won't get you into Heaven anymore"
