That's a more charitable assumption than to think they did understand but are just being obtuse on purpose.-and again, that has been precisely the criticism of catholicism since the reformation. We get it, we all get it.
People point to a bible and you don't believe. People point to the infallible declarations of your own church and you don't believe......and somehow, you think that's -other- people "not getting it".
@Mystic, yay, fun with words! The light and soul and nature of god, yaddaa yadda yadda, being goodness....still commanded people to genocide. How is that to be judged and by whom..or does god get a pass because god? Got some word games for that one?
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!
