“`Would you shut your (expletive) mouth? God’s not going to help you; you need to do something for yourself, you sniveling ...””
I like this guy. God helps those who help themselves.
“In his last words moments before he was killed, Tillman snapped at a panicky comrade under fire to shut up and stop “sniveling.”
(snip)
“No evidence at all of enemy fire was found at the scene no one was hit by enemy fire, nor was any government equipment struck.”
Seems like a contradiction—there is NO enemy fire, yet soldiers are afraid of the enemy fire?
“The chaplain said that O’Neal told him he was hugging the ground at Tillman’s side, “crying out to God, help us.”
I also find that a bit ‘unusual’, if there was NO enemy fire.
And someone trained and sent to a combat zone is ‘hugging the ground’? (Yes, it does happen, but though most soldiers are frightened, they follow their training—which is to keep up fire at the enemy in order to keep the enemy at bay.)
If he has three gunshot wounds to the forehead how is goint to say anything?
Actually God prefers us to speak to him both when we don’t and when we do need him.
To say that God helps those who helps themselves is merely quoting the Devil’s work.
