I'm just going to throw my 2 cents in, and please take it for what it's worth. PTSD can really come back to bite you in the ass in the future and be detrimental if not treated in a timely manner. I spent my entire military career thinking that I was either strong enough, or like you just plain didn't have the time/ event didn't effect me. I assure you that bottling things up is very unhealthy. I did this for over 10 years and once the bottle broke it was almost fatal. So please for the sake of yourself, just keep the notion on the back burner at least of seeking some counseling about this matter. If you ever want to just talk I'm all ears as well just shoot me a pm. I have nothing but time nowadays.

I have always wondered something. I know its called American Sign Language (ASL) however; if you tried to use it to communicate with another deaf person from another english speaking country like UK,Australlia, or Canada could they understand you?

Thank you for doing this AMA! A few questions for you if you don't mind. As a hobby I study various world religions quite frequently just to compare and contrast the differences; however I grew up in a very Christian household. It wasn't until I started really digging into the actual history of Christianity that I began to lose my faith in it. Particularly in reference to the Councils of Nicea and Trent. So my first question would be why exactly isn't it a more widely known fact among Christians in general that the divinity of Christ was actually put to a vote to become cannon, and the divine trinity as well didn't exist before this moment in time as well.

My second question is more of a choice of actual religion question. I've been truly fortunate in my many years in the military to travel the world and see so many other cultures, and it comes as no surprise that most people choose the "religion of their fathers" I however; notice that especially in the states people are very quick to say that Christianity is the one true path to God and everyone else is wrong, and must convert or will burn in hell. So the question is how exactly in your opinion will this be dealt with as well as why would God create so much division in religions if he would want everyone to be happy and there be no strife?
