I agree with that. I was just making a point to MidGe, then you jumped in making a point that was utterly ridiculous, so I had to correct it.

The Blackwater point was ridiculous? hmmmmmm. I disagree.

I agree that Blackwater is not going to try and evangilize veteran SPECOPS operators. Twould most likely be wasted effort and PISS off these very serious dudes for preaching to them. BUT, I tink it's fair to discuss how Blackwater's overall mission/vision can be/is affected by it's owner/manager's religious affilation/activity.

Well, thats very simple.

- Blackwaters mission is to make money.

- Blackwater makes money only one way: They complete the mission.

Pretty clear. This type of nonsense drives me crazy, I'm not religious, but I'm also not so closed minded and insane that I honestly believe that a man cannot successfully run a business and hold religious faith at the same time.

To assume he can't, or furthermore, doesn't have a right to, is pure lunacy.

I'm in the small minority of people on this board who believe that any correlation between atheism and higher intelligence is a myth, and that they are believed only because they cannot be disproven, but also cannot be proven either.

If I'm not mistaken, thats the atheist using religious tricks while claiming not to be religious.
