How is it achieved, and can you then demonstrate the truth of your superstitions by whatever method you select?
You've indicated that you cannot rationally conclude god, that it must be assumed. You've asserted that science is unreliable and/or inapplicable. You've insisted that our sensory faculties are untrustworthy. Fine, now that reason, science, direct experience, and consensus are all out...where does your truth (or any truth) come from?
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!
