Quote:My mistake...I thought we were talking about the bible?
We’re not talking about mass produced fiction so that point is also irrelevant.
Quote:Irrelevant to what? If the conjecture is that the presence (or lack thereof) of contradictions within a fictional narrative are supposed to say something about the narrative (beyond an appraisal of the competency of it's editors) reminding either side that this is not the case seems pretty relevant to me. Even in the case of non-fiction we find conflicting reports and details. I don't see the significance either way - personally.
The irrelevant reason noted above? Ok.
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!
