Civilians will have difficulty understanding what I’m about to say.
But all we ever wanted in GWOT was to be as far away from the “flagpole” as possible.
To be off on our own in the hinterlands.
Getting shot at every day was preferable to the insufferable helicopter parenting the large bases were famous for.
So yes. We would rather be placed in a higher risk situation for our personal safety than suffer through some idiot yelling at us for not wearing a PT belt on a FOB.
It was these same people who would turn us away from the chow hall because we were too dirty after battle.
We would rather risk death on our own than be ruled by risk averse midwits.
I did. It was a horrible experience.
Full of factual errors (Jesus being born in Jerusalem, horses in America before the Spanish brought them, etc.), poorly written, hundreds of "and it came to pass" and other statements making it obvious that it is the same writer in each book,tells of a group being cursed with being black, Jesus telling the Nephites he is the "Alpha and Omega" when they would never have known Greek, quoting Latin words from the King James and other Biblical passages (which were the best parts of the reading), describing places and people that do not reflect the archeological and DNA evidence at all...and that's just the highlights and doesn't include the theoligical statements that directly contradict the Bible....
It's an absolute mess.
But lastly...it promises another testament, which demonstrates it to be a different religion than Christianity. If it's just a different denomination, no new scriptures would be needed. You would never become LDS from reading the Bible alone.
@BasedMikeLee If you say you know me, but describe me as a 6’ tall black female with red hair, the people who actually know me will clearly see that you don’t know me. That’s all this is, and I reject your characterization of Jesus Christ.
