That was for the record, in three separate posts, jackass. Now please, tell me again that I've:

Quote:taken the stance that God predetermines by His inhabitants within everything, by His knowledge of your decisions.
Find your shame, liar, and while you're at it -because it's related- learn about the consequences of one's statements. My position, repeatedly stated, is that if such knowledge is even possible, regardless of who has it, regardless of why or how, then hard determinism holds....because that's -exactly- what that would mean. It doesn't matter if its your silly fucking god with this ability, with this knowledge, or a bum on the corner of 5th and Main. It doesn't matter if it's your silly fucking god that's made this world so, or a damned toaster, it only matters that it -is- so. Your beliefs about what god can do, what god knows, could only be true if this was so, if this was how the world is.....and if that's the case - bzzzzzt - no free will.
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!
