Well, dude, we just don't know. How I figure it; any dude with the balls to storm the beaches on D-day in WWII to put an end to assholes like the nazis is a hero in my book. That's just like my opinion, man.
The author is a Dudeist Priest. He was even filmed for the Way of the Dude documentary (clips available on Youtube) during the 2011 Louisville Lebowskifest and has contributed an essay to our book Lebowski 101. I consider him a pal. I don't always agree with him but I think he takes some brave stances.
HAHAHA Who runs the Dudeism facebook page?Whoever it is posted this article there... It was like an explosion.The best is posted by Dudeism, themselves:Anyone who leaves this page in outrage over this article is welcome to. This doesn't disrespect the military. It challenges fascism. Dudeism is anti-idealist.I actually can't keep up with the comments - and I'm getting too sleepy to care.Lots of folks comment, bash and don't even read the article (based on headline). Others argue semantics, strawman, adhominum bs. Some agree, many disagree.It's crazy this is where we are as a civilization. Knee-jerk reactionaries willing to burn bridges when they are out of their element. On social media. Over ideas.What happened to civil discourse?
Physical strength and courage is only useful and laudable when invested in a cause that is noble and moral. The causes of American foreign policy, especially at the present, rarely qualify for either compliment. The ?troops are heroes? boosters of American life typically toss out clich?s to defend their generalization ? ?They defend our freedom,? ?They fight so we don?t have to.?

A man filmed his friend?s encounter with 48-year-old Sgt. Shawn R. Glans early Friday in Halfmoon. The officer confronted them after he said they walked out of the woods to their vehicle, which was parked in front of a business. The 27-year veteran said they were wearing dark clothes and acting suspiciously.
(And fwiw, DB, I agree with your comment - those dudes in WWII were heroes - they were trying to stop a foreign power that attacked us).
