Rights endowed by natural law are not endowed by god, but by the state of nature x...however that state of nature x is arrived at. Natural law is a poison pill for divine claims to morality. It;s true that religion sought to claim ownership over nature..but, in doing so..they cut themselves out of the moral calculus entirely. Maybe they should have known better...when they were cribbing the kinds of things a bunch of twig worshiping pagans said?
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!
