One has to wonder whether any religion that espouses the notion of a grand wizard in the clouds can truly be compatible with secular organization. It seems that the extent to which they can be, is directly related to the extent to which their adherents no longer believe, or fully believe, in their own assertions about what must be done, and what cannot be done. Theistic religions, as a subset of religion, is very much the religion of kings - earthly and divine. It cannot help but be so without significant revision, and revision which may very well drop it into some other category of belief.

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 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!
