The two aren't synonyms...and without evidence, "proofs" are just an exercise in grammar and syntax.
I'm familiar with Aquinas. I don't find his arguments compelling, not even as an exercise in grammar and syntax. You could pick one, post it - or your summary. Maybe what/why you think it's compelling, and I could tell you why I don't.
We wouldn't agree, but at least we'd understand each other better. I'd know why you believed, and you'd know why I don't.
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!
