Awesome. I consider America's Army to be one of the best things my government has funded within recent history.

    It's weird that after a billion years of human evolution, we still solve conflicts by killing each others.

    It wouldn't seem so weird if you didn't believe in evolution. The persistent, evil inclination of human nature throughout our existence (post-Eden) makes perfect sense from a biblical worldview.

    To play devil's advocate, maybe evolution has determined that killing your enemies is the most effective method of preserving your DNA's posterity.

    Some of the uneducated population blindly protest the war.

    The educated are likewise split on the issue of war. It doesn't matter how much one has learned, but what one has learned.
