I have been an atheist since I was 13.
I arrived in Saigon at 9:00 PM on Saturday May 8th?.
At 10:30 I was screaming and begging Jesus to make it stop.
It got so much worse.
He could have won a life long convert right then and there.
I would have joined Corpus Dei and become a daily flagellant.
A real god would have smighted the enemy and there and there would not
have been thousands of dead bodies lying around the next morning.
Many of these men where devouted christians as was witnessed the next
morning when several choppers brought in many clergymen ("Sky pilot
you're a good holy man"). Thousands of GI's where
running/limping/crawling to the choppers screaming "Save me Jesus,
save me"
It was the most disgusting thing I have ever seen "Save me Colt Arms
Corporation M16, save me"
Where were these people the night before? What were they begging Jesus
for that night? It didn't happen for me and I am betting there were
no little pockets of PAX around them either.
After of couple of more back slidings of screaming for divine
retribution, I would roll over on my back with my finger extended to
the sky and said "***** you Jesus, come down and fight like a man!"
Always good for a butt stroke or two to the head or two.
Ever been in the boonies with what are essentially a large group of
heavily armed serial killers?
***** you god and thanks for the memories .:-)
