?? What?? That came way out from left field!? I 'studied' WTF, I have never even heard of ATF (did you mean ITF!?), and my instructor was a 4th degree... Kyle something (?) from waterloo. Have you done any MA's cougar daddy?! You have come in here and commented on other things but have not...

now, now ... no fighting... he probably meant as someone outside a faith tradition you have no real 'authority,' per say, to be commenting critically on it. The agnostic comment was a bit of a low blow, but to be fair the majority of self proclaimed agnostics i have met have fit the category he...

I for one am. I study/do kyokushin karate, and judo. I have done bjj, taekwondo and freestyle wrestling. I'm curious as to who are the MA's on this forum.

Just be careful to not fall into the pitfall of of becoming so comfortable with your position so as to ignore the realities of the crimes committed in the name of secular goals... statistics have stated that more deaths have resulted in the name of secularism than religion... and thats only...

The lrods resistance army in uganda is another interesting example of horrible hermeneutics: they have been noted for cutting off the hands, lips, breasts and noses of their victims. Leader Joseph Kony has claimed this is justified by the Bible, "If you pick up an arrow against us and we ended...

awww... yes, army of God was one of them... i have my notes at school from a class i took called religion and violence... but unfortately I can't acces them for a couple days. A good read, on the topic of the inherent tension in bible for the division and creation of boundaries... which serve...

theres also a good documentary out about christian terrorist groups - not Jesus camp!!!!! - but I can't seem to think of it right now, when it comes to mind I'll post it.

For example, Deuteronomy 20 contains Yahweh's instructions about war. If a city does not accept Israel's offer of peace and open its gates, then "when the Lord your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the men in it" (verse13). With regard to other cities, the command is (verse...

Are you being rhetorical? Cause I can answer that - especially Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, and Christians! This notion that Christians are innocent, peace, loving people is just as much a generalization as the islmao-phobic one that states they are terrorists. The bible is just as rife with...

Yes, but in WLU they don't nit pick your every word either. If the consensus of the thread is why did 'you' chose this branch, you would get a answer along those lines. I have not given my reasons yet because it seems everytime I do so it starts an argument. I truly want to know others reasons...

MM - thanks for the reply. Because of my verbal warning i can no longer modify posts, and what i was meaning to say by equivalent is - why did you chose med tech over civil paramedic.

this is not for my responses like i said above. You have misread my intentions and post. I am curious as to why others chose this branch.

sorry another component to the question i meant to add - why did you guys who chose med tech do so over the civvie equivalent?

Adam - you mentioned you were a QL3 medic for 6 years? I am a bit confused by this, for sqn_medic mentioned that you go on to do your QL4 right after QL3? Is QL progression not the same for everyone

I know its been asked before about why you joined the CF in general but I could not find a thread that asked why you joined the medical branch over others. I feel more compelled to join as a med tech than say a infantry solider, but i have my reasons and was wondering what yours were?

I can't seem to modify my post, maybe its cause of my warning, but i meant to clarify your last post on the laser eye surgery/glasses for SAR techs. Ideally this is the job for me, my dream job - many on hear know of my rants, through negative associations, but i really do want to make a...

kj - im a bit confused by your post. Is there a difference between the various types of SAR techs? (i.e. your non pilot aircrew comment, or was that in relation to the comment i made about pilots?) It seems many SAR techs come from the infantry, maybe due to the high fitness requirement (?)...

I know a lot of people here have gone through the procedure and i was curious as to what the official stance was? I currently do kyokushin karate and judo, I have heard various opinions on the matter - some ranging from yes you will be able to still do them, to no, the nature of these two sports...

p.s. i know its not your point, and i should ask him to elaborate on it but he went to bed last night before he could and i thought id ask on here for clarification as well.

I was speaking to one of my friends last night about this issue, and he mentioned to me: "The CF, like all military services of every nation in this world, serves its country, its people, and its interests. Along the way, they perform humanitarian interventions when it is in their interest (but...
