Reasoning is a process; not a destination. Reasoning is always open to new perspectives. Reasoning is a straddle; not equivocal. Reasoning is not a firm adherence to fairy tales but an attempt to investigate nature and its working.

If you had bothered to read anything about evolution, then you would know that the scientific world does not say we are descended from monkeys, just that we have a common ancestor. So, before you come on here and spout shit about something you know nothing about, actually do some research so we can have an intelligent debate.

Yeah in many muslim countries those twelve year old girls who are raped are then forced to MARRY their rapists. Let's not forget the age at which women used to be forced into marriage. Yeah I'll bet all those twelve year old girls were willing participants. And aren't these wonderful progressive arguments for the positive change that has occured in society once the influence of religion was final lifted. Lastly, on the issue of child molestation all I will say is this: the ancient Greeks. You 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!
