Maximilian II, Holy Roman Emperor 1564-1576

He said this in private correspondence to like minded notables, including other rulers.

He used his authority to seek to curb the religious strive going on at the time.

Someone else, during the same period, said:

"There are three factions: Protestants, Catholics, and Atheists, and the Atheists are by far the majority"

Martin Luther said:

"These people should be killed wherever they can be found".

He was talking about Atheists.

In the latter part of the 14th century it is said that there was more atheist-style thinking going on (that there is "no God") in England than there was over the next 400 years. This freedom of thought was suppressed in the early 15th century.

This is more bizarre than the individual threads as all were merged.

I doubt it's more confusing than before.

Trying to tidy up a bit.

None of them had ever met a baby...apparently...which beggars fucking belief.
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!
