Having fun pounding sand Neo, lol?
I, like Xenophanes and Bennyboy, find it altogether too convenient that the gods people create, and by default the moralities people ascribe to their gods.....are so very human. While he and I have different opinions on the divine, and Benny and I have different opinions on the nature of moral systems and proclamations, we agree there, at least. The gods we believe in are artifacts of their creators.
Perhaps you too would be able to find common ground if you weren't so busy scorching it for no reason at all?
@steve. No more or less subjective than the purpose or meaning or value ascribed to us by a god. He thinks I'm for "x"..., you agree, I disagree.

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!
