Title: In God we Trust needs help
Post by: rojawe on August 18, 2008, 11:13:26 AM
 
 

Subject: In God we Trust

 

This is terribly important.......

     

Here's your chance to let the media know where the people stand on our faith
in God, as a nation. NBC is taking a poll on "In God We Trust" to stay on
our American currency. Please send this to every Christian you know so they
can vote on this important subject. Please do it right away, before NBC
takes this off the web page. Poll is still open so you can vote.

This is not sent for discussion, if you agree forward it, if you don't,
delete it. By me forwarding it, you know how I feel. I'll bet this was a
surprise to NBC.

Yeah, that is scary.

Actually, given the political stanceof MSNBC and viewership demographics, I find that encouraging!

59 to 41, It's the 41 that really make you wonder. Maybe they could move to China, or France?

Sadly they want to turn the U.S. into France.

I think that Christians ( and non-Christians) should be far more concerned about the currency itself than on what is written on it. While people who name the name of Christ get upset about presence or absence of words on Federal Reserve Notes, the people who own this private banking cartel are stealing us blind and laughing all the way to the bank.

60/40 now.  I hope they keep this open for a while longer so I can round up some more voters.

This is getting around fast. My wife received an email from one of her friends. Looks like it's being circulated all over. Hopefully, the elections in November will go down this way too.

We also have Proposition 8 in California to protect marriage from those who want to turn it into a fight over civil rights.

As of 06:53 MST 08-20-08

Should the motto "In God We Trust" be removed from U.S. currency?   * 4655182 responses 
 
Yes. It's a violation of the principle of separation of church and state.
32% 
 
No. The motto has historical and patriotic significance and does nothing to establish a state religion.

I just voted and it's now 73%. We're winning. I'm not even a Christian, but our country was founded on Christian ideals and I believe in them. Everyone should live by a moral code IMO. Whether you trust God or are suspicious of Him, there are much more important political matters to deal with. I think this is another one of those cases where the whole country is being led around by a carrot on a stick, to distract us from the @#$%ing we get every time we bend over.

Mini-rant over.  :)
