So we are now judging him what he would have done before he was born. That was different time and would like to think even an anti-war campaigner would have seen the need to fight.
So he wasn't respectful because he dressed like he always dresses? How can you judge how he feels from the way he dresses? @wondering he is anti-war so he is standing by his principles.

With the SNP success and now this I believe this is changing British politics. There ...
It would be unlikely that AI would develop spirituality. AI would be built on logic and reason and would base everything on the evidence and environment around them. Something that being religious doesn't lend itself to. If they did form a kind of religion (again unlikely) then surely it would be to worship its creator?
