Would it make you feel better if it read this way?


LOL!  There we go with ole' straw man again.  The point that HH is trying to make is proven wrong by how the founding fathers chose to write the supreme law of the land.  This thread has centered on Article XI of the original post.  That being, "this country was founded on the belief in one God."  Given the words of the supreme law of the land, that clearly isnt' the case.

I'm tired of illegals and people from other countries coming here trying to change things that are part of our heritage.  They should assimilate and be part of the US not expect us to accommodate and change our ways for them which is what they are wanting.  Taking In God We Trust off of our currency is, to me, like trying to take part of our heritage from us.  Maybe I have a slanted view of things but it goes back to that old thing of you don't go into another mans house and make him adapt to your ways you adapt to his.

What do illegal immigrants have to do with taking "In God we trust" off currency?  :confused:

Guys, despite how you twist it or spin it....the FACTS are, Godly men founded this country....and their influence by the Bible and God Himself...led them to design this great country......I agree...that they did not want the Church to run the country..ie Popes, or Kings...but THEY themselves understand the significance of God and Country...these men knew God, and knew His Blessings are attributed to the rising of this Great Nation.....ALL the Glory to God for this....and when the Glory bestows itself to man instead of God Almighty, are country's Blessing begin to falter...as evident by the obvious...

Too bad the American Indians didn't have a chance to voice their opinions along similar lines.

This is from an email being circulated...don't really know who the arthor is but, I like it, and it is probably controversial enough to engage a conversation so here it is:

"We the sensible people of the United States, ...

Blah, blah, blah, crap, crap, crap...e-mail propaganda... :rant:

Some of the email "propaganda" as you call it really expresses some truth though.  You have to admit there is a certain percentage of the population that thinks everyone owes them a living and they shouldn't be held accountable for their actions.  There is also a certain percentage of the population who is responsible for allowing them to believe that and will protect their sorry butts.
