Exactly, antitheism isn't even a position on whether or not gods exist, it's a position on the suitability and acceptability of such beliefs regardless of whether gods exist. Christ Hitchens may not have believed, for example...but his criticism of theism ala "who but a slave would want this to be true?" is independent of whether or not it is true. At least conceptually, it may be true, but that still leaves us wondering who but a slave would wish it were.
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!
