Throughout its short life, the Knights of the Levant defeated massive numerically superior Muhammadan foes. A Christian Army in rags, bereft of adequate arms, food or ammunition defeated the British Empire at the birth of our Nation.
"And now, Almighty Father,
If it is Thy holy will that we shall obtain a place and name among the nations of the earth, grant that we may be enabled to show our gratitude for Thy goodness by our endeavors to fear and obey Thee. Bless us with thy wisdom in our counsels, success in battle, and let our victories be tempered with humanity. Endow, also, our enemies with enlightened minds, that they become sensible of their injustice, and willing to restore our liberty and peace. Grant the petition of Thy servant, for the sake of whom Thou hast called Thy beloved Son; nevertheless, not my will, but Thine be done."
--George Washington
I have an alternative suggestion... How about we excuse Humanists & Atheists from military service?
"Let it be known through out the Empire, from this day, In the Name of Our God & Risen Savior, Jesus the Christ, that the burden of our defense will rest upon the Christians & their sons & daughters in perpetuity. All of the Godless are forevermore excused of any responsibility for the Empire's defense.
In return, the Godless shall suppress their hatred & unhappiness, & allow the Christian Warriors to worship as they see fit."
Non Nobis Domine, Non Nobis, Sed Nomini Tuo Da Gloriam!
