Are you planning on slaughtering a bunch of people?
Becuase, I mean, Kendall. Really. Come on that's just so...

Aaaaawsome. If you need any help just let me know.
I Would Love to help out.

No. I kid, I kid.

I hope that didn't ruin your contemplative mood.
It's obvious today was your first day of school. Teachers always feed us these intriguing questions that keep us preoccupied enough to not drop the class.
Or so it seems to me.

But as for an answer: I think, yes, it is possible.

Yeah see, take Stephen for example. His faith is suburb, but when people look at his face they keel over and die (And do the little twitchy bug leg thing) Happens all too often. It's a shame really.

hahahahhaha i love my friends... they're amazing.

i was actually refering to Christopher Columbus. he was said to have supurb faith in God, yet did you know that he was the cause for most of the indians dying in the bahamas? i could tell you more about it... i've actually soaked up this stuff like a sponge for some reason. but it just struck me as VERY odd... and i agree, i think it's possible. maybe he did have faith in God... but that doesn't mean he actually FOLLOWED Him. he knew God was there... that sorta thing, but most of the stuff was obviously twisted.

it's possible he still could have followed God, everyone sins right?...i know i've thought God wanted me to do something and later found out i was going the wrong direction...killing people is definitely another story, but i can see it happening---if you had just discovered a new world and wanted to claim it for your own people, it would probably be pretty easy to get carried away thinking you were doing something good...david had an affair with bathsheba and then sent her husband to the front lines of a battle to ensure he wouldn't come home, and he was the "man after God's own heart"...

that's very true... kinda have to put yourself in their shoes... it would be extremely tempting to take over such easy people.
