Why We don't take your Holy Scriptures Seriously
#74
RE: Why We don't take your Holy Scriptures Seriously
-and then we have the issue of employment scams.  People pretending to represent some company with a great offer. OFC you're not actually going to get an all expense paid trip to a equatorial sex club.

-and then we have mlms, where the person telling you about the great offer might actually believe it's true, lol.

It was a bad analogy from every angle, because religion was one of the original models for predatory scams. Paradise, that huge bonus...it's never actually behind the next transaction..that's just something that cons and their marks tell you to get you to part with what they want.
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!
