That's enough. None of the nutters care if theres a god, they only care that they can assert that their god is the only god and his representatives on earth are to be obeyed - which the series is very much against. My daughter loved it.
I think it manages to touch on doubts about authority and the (suddenly apprehended) duplicity of adults, especially parents..to kids of a certain age. Basically kryptonite to dipshits who can't get a kid to do what they want them to do by any other means. Who had relied on and expected arguments from authority to be effective in perpetuity.

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!
