But can i just say your response is almost the same as to what more traditional Christians say: you know the ones we all hate. Just Kidding, Good folks. What they will say is I'm not a true Christian and say I created my own religion or i add and subtract from the Bible.You have to believe the "christ" part to be a christian. It's a title and not a name. His name wasn't -actually- Jesus H. Christ.
That part simply -is- supernatural. You can add and subtract just about anything else from the story, and ofc christians do that..that's how they ended up with so many sects, but if you don't go in for the "christ" bit, you're not a christian in any meaningful sense. Matter of simple definition. Christians aren't people who believe that a guy named jesus existed, or that some of the stories in the bible have some sort of truth component to them. Plenty of atheists, and people of other faith traditions think that. It doesn't make -them- christian either.
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!
