I think you may have assumed that I was defending polytheism as a better way. I was only arguing that in that one regard, and for that one individual I cited, a religious tradition can be civil. Polytheism is not in any way better, but at least there is more than one choice. Monotheism, in contrast, is absolute. Again, I was merely arguing against the statement that religious tradition cannot be civil. I think that Julians rule does stand as a sort of interesting backdrop in that regard, to what came before and after.
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!
