Oh dear, disrespecting my betters? Whatever next?
Far be it from me to disrespect people whose choice in life is to make a profession out of killing people. Most psychopaths have to face the risk of facing the law for what they do.

From the view that you have towards army, I assume that You are from the US, whose army fight in unnecessary wars in other countries, so have lost the respect of its people. In that aspect, yes, I agree that they do not do a honourable job. But you should keep in mind that that is not there fault or choice, but the political decisions that are made out of greed for power.

No I am not from the USA.
Where are you from?

That profession is not for just killing someone. If you think so, you may not have seen how they rescue people from natural disasters. I do not believe in after life or the spiritual consequences of killing someone. If so, that should be applicable to other animals as well. And the killings in a war cannot be compared to just killing people for money, which is a task of the mafia bosses.

So are you saying that you have never been in combat?

I did not tell so. But if you want to know, I can say that I have never killed anyone but have saved lives, and that is my task in the army.

Maybe you are not so qualified to make the statements you have, since you have not fulfilled your primary function as a soldier?

What I was trying to say was, army is not for just killing. They kill to protect their country or the ones they love. Many people sleep well because they know that they are being protected by the tri forces and the police. If a police officer had to shoot a serial killer to save a innocent fellow, would you still call that as a murder and label that officer as a fellow who joined the police to kill others?

Are you going to tell me where you are from or not?

No, I do not have any intention to say that.

It seems like you have a very narrow idea about a soldier. Do you think all the soldiers in the world have killed someone? I don't think so. If killing a person makes one a soldier, then all the mafia people will be soldiers.

What makes an ordinary person a soldier is the physical and mental training that one undergoes in order to become a soldier. There are many who enrol into such training but only a few qualify as soldiers. Some of them may never get a chance to kill an enemy. But that soldier remains a soldier forever.

In that case your evidence is worth precisely ZERO

I simply do not get what you say. To which part of this discussion that my country was needed as evidence? Respecting and loving the national army that protects your country, is it a country based concept? I really do not get your point in this.

By the way, you have not commented on what I said about how an ordinary man becomes a soldier. Do you still think a person has to kill someone to be a soldier?

If I understood correctly, what you have told there is that I have not fulfilled my tasks as a soldier to make any statements related to the discussion. Can you please elaborate that.

As far as I understood, you have implied that to be a soldier you should kill an enemy. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I only converse with people who can be honest.

As far as I know, I was never dishonest in this discussion. If you need any clarifications or any proof for something, I can provide that if possible. I prefer if you can elaborate that 'me being dishonest'. Thank you
