What's a real Christian, I wonder? They're are either all real, or all fake, if you ask me. Btw. enjoyed reading this piece.

Just about every day, I meet veterans who lie and exaggerate their accomplishments. They walk around with a huge sense of entitlement, like society owes them a blank check for killing people in illegal, unjust, and unconstitutional wars of aggression which put the country in greater danger.
