You're right, you said you didn't care that we dropped the bomb, you only cared that there are those that consider it the only options (I’m opposed to the a historical nonsense that the bomb was ok because there were no other viable options. ). By your support for a blockade, I should have known that you don't give a shit about casualties, Jap or allied because that is what the blockade would have produced.
By your own estimate (Well, that’s the question isn’t it? How long could they have lasted in 1945? I don’t think they would have been able to hold out through the winter.) Japan being in the N hemisphere, means we would have faced at least 7 more months of war, considering an early spring and the gov't of Japan caving under the blockade, that is 196000 more US dead following the average dead in the week after Nagasaki before surrender, and untold hundreds of thousand dead Japs due to starvation and all the POWs.
“To be fair, I doubt JC cared about Jap casualties”
Right again, you obvious don't give a shit about casualties at all, Allied or Jap. At least you are honest, I guess as a Catholic it is OK depending on the side you're on.
“By your support for a blockade, I should have known that you don’t give a shit about casualties”
I think you missed the part where I said that the atomic bomb was the best option, but that it wasn’t the only one.
At least we got to the heart of the matter here.
“I guess as a Catholic it is OK”
Good thing you got your little 2 minute hate in.
