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!

Unlikely, but possible. Why?

 (July 13, 2014 at 11:33 pm)Revelation777 Wrote: Not to stereotype but you atheists are brilliant and intelligent in once sense but seemingly blinded, ignorant, and clueless to God's Truth.Not to obnoxiously condescend, but perhaps we're brilliant and intelligent in more than "one sense" and it turns out that "god's truth" only makes sense to the blind, ignorant, and clueless?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
-Stephen Jay Gould 
Or "God's Truth" makes you blind, ignorant and clueless.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Nevertheless, I have a question to ask that has more to do with Science and Nature than anything else... Of course we're blinded to the claims of something that's not there. There's no truth in the imaginary. Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni: "You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"  RE: Picking Your Brain...

Copenhagen School  Religious Views: Its all bullshit to keep you handing money to the usher.
Op to which god do you refer? There are just so many and they all claim to be the true God, yet they all contradict each other so much that I can not help but find that skepticism is my natural position to all of their claims.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. |
