Censoring GOD
Instead of giving thanks to the LORD as the pilgrims did, the left in the nation would rather censor GOD!
Yes, school districts all around the nation have forbid the use of 'God' or 'Jesus' in anything from student poems, to essays, to Thanksgiving pagents. Additionally, we do not even teach the Declaration of Independence or the true history of Thanksgiving due to the ACLU and leftists in the nation.
How have we come to the point in time when we can not respect the LORD, our founding fathers, our history or the truth as to what we are all about. It would do those well who reject the religious foundations of this nation to learn or re-learn our collective history. We can respect other beliefs, all religions and still hold to our judeo-christian beginnings.
READ the DOI, READ the PRE-AMBLE to the CONSTITTUTION, READ the writings of founders and you can not come to any other conclussion than that this nation was founded on the principals set forth in the teachings of Christ.
The purpose of the seperation (Church and State) was made clear (by our founding fathers)...not to establish a single religion. IT made no reference to 'not' acknowledge the diety or GOD or JESUS, or the ALMIGHTY. In fact, it would be impossible to ESTABLISH a single religion in this nation, particularly considering that their are more than 25000 denominations of Christianity. Lest you make the argument that Christianity is itself a single religion. However, do make that claim to many of those demoninations who reject other denominations.
This nation should head the words of Ronald Wilson Reagan who said refering to secularism vs non-secular---
"I have wondered at times about what the Ten Commandment's would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress."
or RWR's words...
"If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under."
WE as a nation need to reject the efforts of our schools and those pushing them to remove the TRUTH of our history from our classrooms. We need to teach the TRUE history of our founding and the importance of the ALMIGHTY to give us natural rights.
This past presidential election stands as a skirmish for the direction of our nation. Will we demand that the truth be taught in our schools about such things like THANKSGIVING and our FOUNDING. Will we stand together and acknowledge our past and lay claim to our future?
Give thanks this week, this Thursday, this THANKSGIVING and ALWAYS for the blessings that have been granted us. Remember the words of our first PRESIDENT...
George Washington's 1789 Thanksgiving Proclamation
Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me "to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:"
Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favorable interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enable to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted' for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and, in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.
And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have show kindness to us), and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand, at the city of New York, the 3d dy of October, A.D. 1789.
