That would be phenomenally unlikely. Atheism doesn't take away our ability to see anything that you see, and it doesn't do a thing to you, either. We both see an apple, to use your earlier example. It's a state of belief, not a communicable disability, lol. Oh..but...we both know you were slipping into pious prattle again, don't we.
There's alot in our various myths and fables that's worth knowing, and I can't help but notice that you don't seem to have absorbed any of what's worth knowing in your own chosen set of fairy tales. Twice now you've told us about your being enlightened. Let's see some of that?
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!
