Meh. The "argument" that Chad put forward is that human beings cannot conceive of reality without an imposing agency. That can't be true, since I and a great many others can conceive of -precisely- that. That no one could "express the natural order" without invoking "proscriptive principles". That can't be true either, since -all- of our declarations of the "natural order" are descriptive, rather than proscriptive........ in the first place. Metaphors imply -nothing-. Metaphors are narrative, not logical, devices.
You have low standards for intelligent argument Benny.

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!
