How did you contribute to society?
Are you like all the other people in the secular world, taking up superficial jobs of pushing paper, managing money, managing people, or administrating and just focus on making big money on buying glamor.
Or did you actually invest your time/money on researching about nature, science, trying to invent something, pushing human knowledge, perhaps selling a product and create jobs. Perhaps even making enough to give to charity or invest into new business ventures.
And don't reply with a stupid picture. If you have nothing relevant to say then just be patient and read our posts carefully.
I served as infantry in a NATO Peacekeeping mission that culminated in the creation and recognition of a new country by keeping (largely religious) nutjobs heads in their bunkers for fear of the assault rifle their god apparently has no power over. I went from this to overseeing prototype circuit manufacturing in support of the same. Then I decided I'd like a change of pace, joined a state and federally funded conservation organization that was researching vertical hydroponic agriculture. I donate to food kitchens regularly and run a small consulting gig (mostly from my PC).
If your god has advanced scientific knowledge, and a superior grasp of economics etc...then why are all of his countries shitholes? Why aren't muslims sweeping the nobel committee year after year? There is no invention anywhere that works on magic. Allah explains nothing. You have nothing to show anyone for all of your claims. Nada.
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!
