I, as a Christian, believe Jesus existed because I do see historical evidence for his existence. Battle that one out somewhere else.No that's okay, you're committed to using things which you do not intend to demonstrate as answers to a question, and of course this would be the way it went. It matters very little to me, the only thing that would make this fairy tale -more- reprehensible is if it were actually true.
Quote:Can the President send the U.S. Army after Republicans? I'm not saying that God cannot fashion some other means of saving mankind. What I AM saying is that forgetting the injustices of everybody would be immoral. God wouldn't be worth worshipping if he just let some of our sins slide.Is the POTUS god? So, just so I have this straight, you reckon your god -could have- done this some other way, but chose scapegoating for whatever reason? Is that supposed to be more or less immoral on the part of a god? A scapegoating god isn't worth my worship.
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!
