Truth favors the prepared mind. Freedom in Jesus means being released from the oral traditions, practices, customs of men and their made-up commandments. But keeping the commandments of GOD

If I can create fear in the small minds of Islamo insanoids then yes, I am a terrorist. I gladly accept that role.
Get with it..Islamo-insanoids want to kill YOU, your family, everything that is YOU. They will take your freedom, your life, rape your wife, slaughter your babies, all in the name of "allah".
These 4000 gave their lives to protect "their" families, and by accident, I assure you< YOU get the benifit of thier sacrafice.

According to Lloyds in London, working on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world...Dangers are everywhere on the flight deck and that is why the people who are working there have to be in perfect physical and mental condition.

Peace is not the absence of war...........it is removing the capability of one's enemy to wage war
Peace:
1. the normal, nonwarring condition of a nation, group of nations, or the world.
2. an agreement or treaty between warring or antagonistic nations, groups, etc., to end hostilities and abstain from further fighting or antagonism:
3. a state of mutual harmony between people or groups
4. the normal freedom from civil commotion and violence of a community; public order and security.
**Here are some that I especially love, but will most likely go right over your heard (considering your definition of Peace)**:
5. cessation of or freedom from any strife or dissension.
6. freedom of the mind from annoyance, distraction, anxiety, an obsession, etc.; tranquillity; serenity.
7. a state or condition conducive to, proceeding from, or characterized by tranquillity
At Peace:
13. at peace, a. in a state or relationship of nonbelligerence or concord; not at war.
b. untroubled; tranquil; content.
c. deceased.
Peace can be a state of harmony or the absence of hostility. "Peace" can also be a non-violent way of life."Peace" is used to describe the cessation of violent conflict. Peace can mean a state of quiet or tranquility — an absence of disturbance or agitation. Peace can also describe a relationship between any people characterized by respect, justice, and goodwill. Peace can describe calm, serenity, and silence. This latter understanding of peace can also pertain to an individual's sense of himself or herself, as to be "at peace" with one's own mind.
There should be no current Iraq war. There should be no Iraq. It should be a staging area for the real evil.....IRAN.

Here is one from my buddy Jesus:
And when he drew near and saw the city he wept over it, saying, "Would that even today you knew the things that make for peace! But now they are hid from your eyes.
~Luke 19:41,42

Those who protest the loudest about war, claiming to have been there, are always those in "supply"....
The flight deck of an aircraft carrier is one of the most dangerous places in the world, and the lessons of our past are filled with tragic events that prove it.
A board a deployed aircraft carrier, the flight deck serves as the workplace for nearly a thousand Sailors.
Although fraught with danger, it is a place of beauty, skill and timing. Many writers have called the activity that takes place on the flight deck a “ballet.” When it comes to timing and interaction, the comparison is apt, but keep in
mind that some of the other “dancers” are lethal, multi-ton aircraft that, at times, travel hundreds of miles per hour. The dance floor is a hot, stench-filled, steel deck that can be measured in acres and contains hundreds of hazards.
George C. Wilson—author of Supercarrier—said, “An aircraft carrier’s flight deck is a million accidents waiting to happen.” He’s right, but Sailors armed with the knowledge of places to avoid, things to look for, and sounds to
be aware of are more able to manage risk.

When Jesus does return he WILL make peace by destroying evil once and for all time. Take away satans ability to make and create war by throwing him and all his followers into the lake of fire
