Obama at Georgetown…Symbols of Catholicism Not to be Found

When President Obama gave his speech at Georgetown University on Tuesday, something was missing.

According to the Washington Times, “that “something” was an ancient monogram — the letters IHS — that symbolizes the name of Jesus. It was missing from a wooden archway above the dais in Gaston Hall where the president delivered his 45-minute speech.

The gold-lettered monogram appeared near a painting of three female figures — symbolizing morality, faith and patriotism — and decorative edging along the wall that spelled out the Jesuit motto “Ad majorem Dei gloriam”—”To the greater glory of God.” Georgetown was founded by the Jesuits.”

Imagine if Obama were to give a speech at the Islamic Center of Washington, DC.   Would members of that community approve the covering of the Shahada?

Not only was this step taken by the White House advance team, Obama himself mangled a parable from the Sermon on the Mount about two houses, one built on sand only to be blown away in a storm, and another built on rock impervious to the swirling winds.

Obama apparently explaining why he wants not only to revive the sagging economy but to completely reinvent it, certainly used the wrong analogy.

What Obama, who is a Christian, fails to realize that what the parable from the Sermon on the Mount meant had to do with spiritual foundations, not physical foundations.

On the one hand, an obvious symbol of Catholicism is covered up, inside the oldest Catholic institute of higher learning in the Nation, while at the same time, a well-known Christian parable is used to make a very sectarian point…and a flimsy one at that.

Not wanting to get into this separation of Church and State, but when it is convenient for a politician to invoke religion, an experienced politician would get it right.    Or is that Wright?

Exit Question: Where did Obama go to church on Easter Sunday? (Obama has yet to officially "find a church" in Washington.)

Where do you think?  He just went and looked in the mirror for a couple of hours and prayed to himself.
