"On land that was stolen from Indians, not very Christian if you ask me."It's very Christan and that's the point. God told 'em it was okay, ya know manifest destiny and all that.

Ohio's rules getting out of hand for schools!

God even wanted bush to be president, all wise and knowing, and his best bet for president is a bumbling idiot.

Your forgetting, God works in mysterious ways, so even if W is his chosen boy, as is still proclaimed by at least some on the far right, you'll never know why and therefore the choice will always remain valid, above error and beyond reproach. I'm sure somehow it's explained but doesn't God actively working to steer society or government for unseen reason contradict the Christian belief in free will.

Quote:So It's okay because it's not at tax payers expense? YAY! WTF are you talking about? I was responding to what Remis said about there being better things to spend taxpayers money on. And I never said it was ok or not ok. I said I could care less. I responded to the OP's original question (yeah, anyone even remember that?). If the state motto was "Under Satan we trust" and they hung it in the classroom...I still wouldn't care. It's the motto. I'm not going to change the country and neither are you.

In fact, that's why there were such an overwhelming majority of Christians coming to America...to get away from others who were trying to tell them what to do!And change is not the essence of early American ideals...more like progress towards an open and free society (the opposite of what it was like where most early settlers came from). Progress away from such (like trying to stifle what others can think and say...even on a message board) is not progression towards this end, but is regression away from it.Have you had your java yet?

Actually no, the whole pregnant thing.See what OldFolks said, the reason why this is a free country from a single religion is because no one liked the others views from the start. That's why things are as they are, because no one agreed.
-
you guys and your friggin hostility man!! it's like watching an old married couple fight. every single time you guys blow up and chop off each others heads when it comes to religion. why? why can't you just let it be! for the love of humanity.
and the other rude stuff said on here, I forgive those of you. brush it off babay brush it off. because I know it wasn't intentionally

Just for the record...when you get cranky and speak from your position of crankiness...you say some really insightful things.Maybe you shouldn't censor yourself so much, no?
-
insightful things such as what? I'm interested to know.and usually when I'm cranky I don't go anywhere near the computer or phone. I drown it out in chocolate ice cream and at least 5 episodes of Boy Meets World. Trust me you do NOT want to see me when I'm cranky. It's like the Hulk femalized but 100 fold.

lol yes it's exaggerated. just giving a nice vivid picture. but let's just say you'd rather meet me when I'm happy and "chipper" rather than the exact opposite.
