Look, Crux, you assume that our very humanity isn't the source of our morality, that without a god to hand us the rules we'd just shuffle about like animals raping and beating and killing each other indiscriminately. This is simply not the case. Our ever developing concepts of morality predate your fairy tale by an unbelievably wide margin. Societies cannot be built, or survive with a concept of morality that allows the unrestricted predation of it's members, by it's members. Any such society would not survive to pass it's concepts of morality on through the ages. Simply put, if you eat your children no one lives to tell the tale.
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!
