I have found basically the bare minimum of what is necessary for me to believe.Every believer thinks that. All of you have to filter and sort to suit. Each of you think that you;ve excised all of the silly shit, and that what remains is essential to your beliefs.

Quote:I talk about this later, but believing in a God gives me purpose.So what, that doesn;t tell us whether or not your god belief is accurate..it; doesn;t even tell you that. If you don;t need whatever gives you purpose to be accurate..then I doubt you need a god to give you purpose. Any other old lie would do just as well. Ever heard of a magical being named Grover? He gives life lessons and even..I;ve heard it told, instills a sense of purpose. Maybe you need to go find some Grover?
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!
