If we are doing the right thing and if God does exist.... why there's no justice from the "superpower"?

So one of the "if" is invalid?!

I was looking at a site and it said:

"Source Ratings: Men and women interested in EOD should choose a rating from this list: AB, AO, EM, EN, GM, HT, IC, IT, MM, MN, OS, PH, PR, QM, SK, or SM. Applicants for EOD cannot be approved if they are part of a Naval Reserve program such as TAR, SAM or two year programs."

Does this mean other than being an EOD, can I be one of those ratings??? Can I have two ratings?

There have been several of you who have answered...and you KNOW who you are...who seem to think I was implying that my son is ANY better than anyone else's. I NEVER implied that. And you will see that if you will REREAD my original question, because you mistakenly assumed (and you know what assuming does) that was my implication.

People DO NOT come here to be ridiculed. People come here for quick answers to a pressing question. I ONLY came here for an answer to my question, not to be insulted. Shame on you. Of course my son is VERY special to me...maybe even more special because he is my ONLY child. EVERYONE should feel as I do for their children. I asked the question for information, but more than that, out of concern for his welfare.

So, my question NOW is...what makes people so mean? Is it just because they can be, because this is SO anonymous a forum? If that is what your reasoning is, well......need I say more?????

Can anyone (no dumb @ss Americans please unless your not being dumb) give me info on Joining the Canadian Military? Looking for info on educaton mostly but info on what it does to someone personality and discipline are also good. Also what is better if you are pursuing education Navy, Army or Air Force?

P.S. I'm a Computer Tech, so it would be in that general area of education.

I like the military but a part of me feels scared. I feel that I am out of place with them because I feel most will look at me more as a specimen than a person. I haven't had a lot of people that treated me warm but most like clinical. Like, the military has order, discipline and things like that and I'm some random pissant kid. I feel very small. They so professional with their uniforms and their knowledge, I feel like why am I in their presence, I don't belong here?

Trying to find out how rank works.
Is possible for an Army Corps Engineer to be of a higher rank than USMC Sergeant or an USAF Major? Can they Order them to do some thing like guard a post or help fix some thing?

I have no exposure to the military except to tell the one solider thanks for a lecture on Photoshop that I attended 3 years ago.

My grandfather fight in the Phiippine guerilla army during WW2. He was approved of some benifits like living in the US and have a chance to become US citizen and can claim his monthly pension, My grandfather is too old and we in the family attemp so many times to encourage him to live in the US with our US citizen relatives. But he always insist and prefer to live and die in his own country. I don't know how you call it, but he is too hesitant of living in another area in a different culture, weather, and climate. Is their anyway that he can get his dollar pension w/o going to United States?

I will leave my emaill open for 1 week. Any person or relative of that person around the globe who have familiar case and got his US dollar pension w/o living his own country, pls email me.

Our family have agreed to to give some sort of reward for those person who can solve this problem.

I was on a deployment in the Bahamas, a few years ago (Marine Corps) and was part of an experiment that dealt with the pro/cons of double-oxygenated water. We wore monitoring devices that resembled a wrist watch and drank this "special" water and were asked a series of questions throughout this timeframe. My question is this: I haven't found anyone else that was part of the research and have found nothing on this as well and am wondering if anyone knows (or was part of) what this was for? This was while we were with 8th Engineers out of Lejeune. Thanks.

When President Bush entered Lance Cpl. Chad Watson's hospital room, the young Marine wanted to stand and shake his hand.

Just standing is quite a feat when you have just one leg and your foot is in a cast.

Supporting himself on a walker, Watson reached out his hand but immediately lost his balance and grabbed the walker.

"The second time I went off balance again," said Watson, 23. "My brother (Brandon) saw what I was trying to do and grabbed me under my arm. That stabilized me enough to shake the president's hand."

Surrounded by family members, Watson stood upright as a fellow Marine read his Purple Heart commendation, and the president pinned the medal on his blouse.

"It was all his upper body strength," said his father, Mike Watson. "There wasn't a dry eye in the house."

Then, the president said, "Lance Cpl. Watson, I command you to sit down."

"With a smile on his face, of course," Watson said.

Mike and Gina Watson said the president and first lady Laura Bush spent about 15 minutes with their family, which included Brandon, a Mount Zion High School sophomore, and Amy, a sophomore at Northern Illinois University. His other sister, Lindsey Damery, a nurse who helped Chad Watson tremendously while hospitalized, was unable to attend.

When Chad Watson asked the president if he had a few minutes to sign autographs for his siblings, he replied, "I'll sign all day for you."

A three-star general in the president's entourage told Chad Watson that he planned to tell the Marine commandant that a young Marine who was missing one leg, with the other injured, had made the effort to stand for the president.

"That is something I am most proud of," Chad Watson said.

Does anyone believe that the U.S. / Nato intelligence machine could be SO wrong about weapons of mass destruction?

Does anyone still believe that Iraq had anything to do with 9/11?

Remember - "Weapons of Mass Destruction and Involvement in 9/11, were the ONLY reasons given that congress had to act upon"

Does anyone think that we have done anything other than further destabilize an already chaotic region of the world?

I think we can all agree there will be a war against Iran but who do you believe will be involved on both sides. Obviously Britain, USA and Israel will be involved for the allies but who else and who will back Iran if anyone. Will the possible nuclear threat of Iran cause nations to act or not?
