Then perhaps religion should stop making claims about the material world. Perhaps the religious should just abandon all of the arguments that hinge upon the material. Like Genesis, Miracles, Vicarious Salvation, Damnation, and Armageddon (off the top of my head), oh that's right, if they did that they wouldn't actually have any sort of traditional christianity whatsoever. I guess they could still call themselves christian though, couldn't they Frodo.
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!
