Let me point out, again, the point at which you failed to address the hypothetical, and began to pitch straw-
Quote:Identity means that something is itself. 2+2=4 because 2 things and 2 things is the same as 4 things.-In the hypothetical universe- the identity of the sum of 2 and 2 is 5. "Itself"...in the hypothetical universe, is 5, not 4. 5 is not a label for 4, it is 5. 5. Five. 2+2=5, in that universe. End of. Speak to that, or speak to something else, like how it -can't- be 5, and such a universe can't exist....and pitch straw. That's not the question of the OP, nor is it my question. It's no one's question. It is your own insistence, nothing more.
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!
