[QUOTE="CabVet, post: 61670006, member: 297812"] "A few thousand", seriously? That is just sad. 9/11 was a few thousand, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were lots of thousands. Oh, so now not only you know the outcomes of imaginary alternative scenarios, you also know my position on abortion? FYI, I am pro-life, the difference between you and me is that I am pro [B]all[/B] life, not just that of unborn babies. I did serve on the military. We could have had the same outcome if the bombs were blown in areas with low population density. Heck, the Japanese would probably surrender after just Hiroshima, but we had to have Nagasaki three days later. And oh how soon we forget our past in those divisive days: In 1946, a report by the Federal Council of Churches entitled Atomic Warfare and the Christian Faith, includes the following passage: "As American Christians, we are deeply penitent for the irresponsible use already made of the atomic bomb. We are agreed that, whatever be one's judgment of the war in principle, the surprise bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are morally indefensible." [/QUOTE]
