I think you take an oath or something that directly contradicts what you're saying right now.

I also didn't believe in the "under god" part when I was told to recite the pledge of allegiance in 3rd grade, did I do it? Yes. Did I agree with the general principle of the Pledge? Yes.

But this isn't some movie or fairy tale where people ignore common sense or humanity over some Oath or Pledge.

The oath is a tradition, an archaic one imo at that. If I get told to slaughter some one for no fucking reason I'm not going to do it.

If you believe most people in the military would then you are naive or gullible, people don't magically lose their common sense because they enlist in the military.
