At least it better be. If Jesus doesn't get his ass down here soon there won't be any True Christians ™ left to rapture.

™: True Christian is a Trademark of the Landover Baptist Church. I have no affiliation with this fine group of True Christians ™ because I can't afford their tithing requirements but would like to be. Maybe someday the Lord will bless me with enough riches that I am able to. And for the lovers of Poe, here's your winking smiley: 
Now THAT would be heaven on earth.

Quote: I hold to this blind faith idea because we don't have to know the "how" to observe that life began on this planet at exactly the right time 3 billion years ago.Exactly the right time for what? Further, exactly the right time for what kind of life? Quote:It didn't take 6 billion years for life to begin, it didn't even take 6 million years - as soon as the conditions for life were right it began, that can only mean that there is a reliable mechanism that allows for life to self-start.What conditions? What about those conditions was right? By what metrics? For what kind of life? How reliable is this mechanism if life only appears to have sprung up this once? How can something self-start without any "self" to begin with? Quote:None of that means that I don't need a Saviour though ...From what?
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!
