Beyond failing to rehabilitate god's alleged altruism...I doubt that this is true. If the governments ask for "signing up" for something were equivalent to gods then every nutball christer on earth would erupt into a tizzy fit. You already do.
It's not really enough, in the christian mind, to write your name down on something. That isn't going to get anyone a golden ticket. Most of you are certain that a significant portion of professing christians are mere cultural christians because that's all they've done.
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!
