I want there to be large sum of money in my hands. There is not a large sum of money in my hands. Sometimes "what you want" is not the same thing as "what is".
You want bad deeds to be punished after death, you have no evidence that bad deeds are punished after death.
You want to be rewarded after death, you have no evidence that good deeds are rewarded after death.
I am not afraid of punishment after death, nor am I expecting any reward for any good deeds I do. I don't do evil things because I am not an evil person. I do good things because I enjoy doing good things.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
