It would be strange if it weren't entirely common I suppose. A person can be interesting without their opinions having any merit, and while I'm with you, people are interesting, it still bears mention in this conversation that this doesn't make the contents of their faith (or lack thereof) any more compelling. I had a neighbor named John who seran wrapped dogs (to keep them clean), nailed cabbage patch dolls to trees(to keep them honest), and had a habit of standing on dumpsters yelling "I'm the king of the dumpster" (to keep them in their place) before breaking out into song...all of this around 2am nightly. Very interesting guy, but I don't think that he was actually the king of the dumpster, or that his actions kept the dumpster in it's place, the cabbage patch dolls honest, or his dog clean. Know what I mean?
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!
