He's not sure about 9/11 yet, but suspects 9/11 was a set-up and he went to war in the Mideast based on lies that Bush presented to the American public. He was told when he went into someone's house, it was either them or you. So he acted accordingly.
Veterans must realize they were unforgivably deceived and lied to by psychopaths for their own gain. God will ultimately punish them for eternity. Veterans had good intentions and felt they were doing the right thing on behalf of their country and for the world. They were willing to give the ultimate sacrifice. Anyone with intelligence will realize that what happened. And God knows what is in their heart. GOD SEES THEM.
It's very sad. He's struggling and in pain. It is not his fault in any way. I think this may happen to many veterans. We must help and support them in any way we can.
I was in a huge car accident with serious outcomes. All is better now, but at that time I felt my lowest, hollow, despair and depression. I even considered suicide.
All my life I was an atheist. You could say a militant atheist to the point of being obnoxious. For instance if someone said: "God is all around us". I'd say: "Really? If God is all around us, have him move that chair right now".
I did have a good moral compass before faith. I always tried to do the right thing and felt compassion and empathy for others. One time I was at McDonalds and saw teens walking by who grabbed an elderly man's fries. I went to the counter, told them what happened and got him more fries. Another time I was driving and saw 5 kids in a circle around a scared little mouse. I stopped my car and made them stop. I thought if there is really a God, when I die, he should judge me by how I behaved in life and what I've done for others. If he still sent me to Hell for not believing him with all the good I had done, I thought that would be egotistical.
By the time I was in my 20s, I had become an Agnostic organically on my own. I wasn't sure anymore. I started going to a nondenominational church. They had a prayer box. Every now and then I would ask for peace of mind because I didn't have it. Then I decided Nature was God. (Later I learned Einstein thought that Nature was God too). Now I know God made nature. After my accident, I needed real help. I leaned on God. Through God, I received faith, hope, spirituality, patience, peace and amplified my love, humbleness, appreciation, charity and compassion. Most of all, I received God, Jesus, The Holy Spirit & The Blessed Virgin Mary. I lived without faith, then with faith. I choose faith.
Before God, I would take a test and worry about the outcome all the way until I received my score. Now, I try my best at whatever I do, and leave the outcome to God. I don't worry anymore. I'm not afraid to die. I just try to live in the moment.
My life has changed. All for the better. And I thank God for all he has done and will do. I have faith, and it feels really good. 🕊
Thank you. What a beautiful story.
I knew it was worth asking about. Thanks for taking the time.
You're very welcome fren. Actually, it was a good feeling to remember my metamorphosis. It has taken a lifetime.
The funny thing is, I've always been drawn to religious and ancient things. My dad worked for the airlines and I was lucky enough to visit Rome, France and England as a child. I think it had a profound impact of my sense of beauty and aesthetics. Before I became religious, I loved religious art, especially icons. I wore cross earrings and had crosses throughout my home with Italian pottery on the walls as decorations. Only Ozzy Osbourne has more crosses than me, lol.
My atheist father once asked me what all the crosses meant. I just found them to be beautiful. My husband tells me that it was because I was going to believe in God one day. I think he was right.
May God Bless You & Keep You Safe 🕊
