Well, I wasn't allowed on formal parades in the army because I couldn't march in step and would throw those around me out.

 I have the social skills of a duck.

But drums? I don't need no stinkin' drums.   Dodgy

The legitimate object of government, is to do for a community of people whatever they need have done, but cannot do, at all, or cannot, so well do, for themselves— in their separate, and individual capacities.

-noted communist Abraham Lincoln
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!

"The psyche is an archive, culture denotes inhibition, memory is weaker than forgetfulness, perception works to prevent seeing too much and intellection to prevent understanding too much, a manifest virtue is the obverse of a latent vice, and one’s sexuality informs the highest reaches of one’s mind."

It actually makes a weird kind of sense - once you decided that your particular church is the sole arbiter of what constitutes ‘error’, you (and only you) get to determine if you’ve erred.

The checkered history of the Church is a tangled web of lies and corruption which is obvious to any honest student of the past and present. I left the Church long before I liberated myself from religion.  Read

I don’t disagree, not even a little bit. BUT…you and I (and billions of others) are well outside the Roman Church. Of course the Church can claim it has never erred, just as Muslims claim the Quran is perfect and Mormons claim that Joseph Smith had a magical hat.
