the military functions through demanding blind obedience to orders

[Arlo]
This was a historical observation, about the function of state and church 
"armies" throughout history. You are correct in pointing out that since 
WWII there has been a vocal backlash against such blind obedience. The 
various crimes you cite, are all orders that any soldier, for any state or 
religious social structure, should rightly disobey. This has been my point 
all along.

Now, my question to you, do you think, that at any time in American 
history, there has ever been issued an "immoral order"? What examples would 
you provide?

Also, do you agree or disagree with my general statement that neither 
"theism" nor "atheism" are to blame for historical atrocities, but rather 
blind obedience to the social power structure of either "the church" or 
"the state", and the willful adherence to the belief that one's chosen 
social structure can do nothing immoral.
