Use the stories of Joshua and Judges (in the Bible) to support your own argument for or against the use of warfare to resolve disputes among nations. Be as persuasive as you can.

Most soldiers I know have resolved themselves to hell because of their choice of occupation. As a soldier, we see too much and do some pretty terrible things in the name of securing a nation. I have doubts that, a person who is designed to kill, even if in the name of another, can ever truly repent of these things. So, are we just creators of chaos, or are we giving the ultimate sacrifice... the loss of eternal redemption, to ensure those we serve remain free?

The amount of cruelty in the world depresses me. If I believed in god(s), I might believe there will come a time when the world will be free of pain and suffering. I might even believe that murderers and animal abusers and wife beaters would be punished. But since I don't delude myself with such fanciful notions, I don't believe that such a world will ever exist. This makes me so depressed I just want to cease to exist. Certainly, I try to do what I can to relieve the suffering of others, but in the grand scheme of things, I think it's hopeless.

How do other atheists deal with this subject? How do you go on living? I would be especially interested to hear the viewpoint of an atheistic existentialist.

(I already have a psychiatrist and anti-depressants, so don't go there. And Bible thumpers, spare me the preaching.)

our spirit possesses quality/trait making it incapable of hatred, greed, jealousy, anger and unforgiving? If yes, what is it that it lacks taking and doing in our body only to be mangled with all the egoistic traits?

Is an Atheist someone who believes differently then you or is it someone who does not believe in any of the religions and the idea of God?Would you call an Atheist names and would you call a person who believes differently then you names?

The reason I ask this is because of the response I got from another question.See the 5Th answer to this to see what I mean:
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Am5GN.dK.nN0BJoWIpZOrwHsy6IX?qid=20060719235151AAqUnxE

This person accuses me of being an Atheist.Or at least the response suggest that that was the sentiment.How does that person know I am an Atheist?I quoted a religious document and asked if people knew of it.How does that make me an Atheist?Is it because my religion sounds odd?or even silly?If so, then see this question:
