"The logic" is -invalid-, that's what it means for something to be fallacious. OFC it presents two mutually exclusive propositions, all compelling false dichotomies do. That doesn't change their status as false dichotomies.
I'm not sure why you're even going to bat for this little bit of idiocy, it's only a dilemma for you god believing types, and even then only a dilemma for god believing types with a myopic view of both the good, and the divine, and even then, only for those who either don't understand or simply refuse to accept the necessity of a valid argument structure independent of ones beliefs. I'm surprised that you don't appreciate the help in responding. But, then, I guess you hit all three criteria, don't you, lol?

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!
