You know how you feel when you think about all the other gods you don't believe in? That's what's going on here. Pretty much a non-event in your life, I imagine. Same here.

Quote:I grew up believing in God, so I never had that time where I lived for decades without a belief in Him and then one day I believed in Him. For me it was just a matter of going from believing He was real, to actually being saved by Him. So this whole concept of unbelief in someone who for me is obvious and real, is fascinating to me.Polar opposite here...though I'm not so much fascinated by your having faith as I am about what you have faith in. I like the stories. The religions are useless.

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!
