Yes, and the official motto of the 3rd Panzer Division (Wafen SS) was
"Gott mit Uns". I Wonder if "Gott" felt obligated to them because of thier
(or anyone elses) claim.
Every religion has their "Holy Writ" that contains the tenants of the
religion. If one claims "I am a _____." one can measure the truth of the
claim by measuring the actions of the person (or group) against the "writ"
they claim to follow.
You point out the hypocracy the human often engages in? Congrats, so does
the Bible, the Koran, the Torah and presents a warning to those who engage
in such practices.
You describe the actions of people engaged in an obvious hypocracy and
then use that to trash a religion who's tenents AGREE WITH YOU on these
points.
