Truman in 1941 wrote:If we see that Germany is winning we ought to help Russia and if Russia is winning we ought to help Germany, and that way let them kill as many as possible, although I don't want to see Hitler victorious under any circumstances. Neither of them thinks anything of their pledged word.

Mind pointing out where I pretended I was an expert? I am sure that you can do so and are not just sore about the fact that I have a different opinion on a matter of theology than you. I am assured of this. Of this I am assured.

I didn't say that. I didn't say anything close to that.

Sorry that you think that reading isn't a valid source of general knowledge.

This is getting too Socratic for me. How can you dispute the knowledge of an issue if you lack knowledge on the issue?
By that measure lack of knowledge is generally considered the supreme form of knowledge as we all know.
