 Wherever the standard of freedom and independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will her [America's] heart, her benedictions and her prayers be. But she goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy. John Quincy Adams (1767-1848)

America's glory is not dominion, but liberty. Her march is the march of the mind.
She has a spear and a shield: but the motto upon her shield is, Freedom, Independence, Peace.
This has been her Declaration: this has been, as far as her necessary intercourse with the rest of mankind would permit, her practice.
~John Quincy Adams

The last part has become completely obsolete since 2001.

Monsters are sometimes the products of magicians who wish to divert attention during a trick. Beware of "lambs" that smoke from the nostrils while pointing out dragons.

The States, like every empire throughout history, stands only in the defense of that which contributes to its advantage and prosperity only. Philanthropy is a facade to masquarade ambition.
look into my eyeballs, there thy beauty lies, then why not lips on lips since eyes on eyes? William Shakespeare

At least that's how I understand Man in Black's comment, one with which I agree wholeheartedly. Arguing with a creationist is like playing chess with a pigeon. It'll knock over the pieces, crap on the board, and fly back to it's flock to claim victory.
