thats true, and yet, we saved europe as well as the pacific at the same time in the same war.
Wow what complete rubbish. The US were not the only country in WW2!
but we were the most powerful
and YET lost against 3rd world countries like Korea, Taiwan, Iraq and Afganstan!!!
one thing is sure about the USA, they are world-leading BRAGGERS!
Wow what complete rubbish. The US were not the only country in WW2!
i dont understand why this is a difficult concept, in WW2, we killed any german that moved. We didnt have geneva conventions nor rules of engagement. In all other wars we did, no one can win wars like that. If you fight a war, you win by attrition. Its that simple.
Do you really think that there would be an England if the US hadn't saved you (and the rest of Europe)?
Are you nuts? Peter drew his sword to defend Jesus and Jesus told him to put it back. Why are you twisting this to defend "open carry" of firearms? Okay, do this: carry an unloaded pistol. No ammo! Then you can feel brave and macho, because that's clearly your need.
Your "open carry" argument is ridiculous!
Our fight is to contend for the true faith . Preaching the glorious Gospel and all biblical sound doctrine wherebyGod is there to fight for His children
For those who keep on misquoting Luke 22:36, to try to "prove" that Jesus Christ sanctions the use of weapons, the passage later in this same chapter is conclusive that this is WRONG
While he was still speaking, there came a crowd, and the man called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He drew near to Jesus to kiss him, but Jesus said to him, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?” And when those who were around him saw what would follow, they said, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?” And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear. But Jesus said, “No more of this!” And he touched his ear and healed him. Then Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders, who had come out against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs? When I was with you day after day in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.” (verses 47-53)
Jesus says NO MORE OF THIS, which is the same as Matthew 26:52, IT IS ENOUGH.
What does Jesus do or say after Peter cuts of the ear of the high priest? Jesus HEALS the ear! Jesus did not say, well done Peter, this is the way to go! NO, Jesus shows MERCY and COMPASSION!
This passage is beyond any doubt the clincher against Christians using weapons to defend themselves!
We were fighting a common enemy in WW11, and personally I don’t think we would have done it without the Americans coming to help. I do believe it was a combined win though, coalition. Also Russia conquered Germany from the east , and the coalition from the west.I have no doubt that Europe would have beaten Hitler, but taken longer. The US only had their self-interests in mind.
Against third-rate countries, the mighty US, got WHIPPED!
I seriously wonder if this thread should continue as it’s just going round and round in circles, very much like the other thread, well many threads. If it’s going to become a ‘ my countries better than yours ‘ and visa versa …..then it will be locked.

i think i can explain this thread very quickly, and answer it at the same time. You had a brit who thinks no one should have guns, try and vent that there are those of us who believe guns are an absolute right. The reality, as i have tried to explain to him, is that we Americans will never be disarmed, no matter who tries to take our weapons. And that IS the final answer.
