Curtisb, 38

i am currently a soldier on my second deployment in Iraq. I have been in the service for a little over 5 years now. I enjoy working out and writing. Philosophy is one of my favorite subjects to read upon and i find a great passion in having conversations with people about religion, politics, freethinking and pretty much any topic that is not favored upon in the service. I like to think that congressmen in office who write laws based upon religious beliefs and views, impacts more of a threat to my freedom than a few terrorist. Religion itself is the root of all evil. Wars, suicide bombers, religious extremist, and people who kill in the name of god.....common sense never prevails in any of these events.
