Subject: Pledge, "under God", WWJD? |
Bible Note: Aniset I agree Jesus would not say the pledge to start with so asking the question what would Jesus do is problematic in itself. I also do not see this as a line in the sand type of situation. To me abortion should be a line in the sand but alas it is not. However saying one nation under God does little in my eyes. While I would love for this nation to be at a place where such an issue isn't even raised, it isn't. Many claim this is the persecution for Christianity for the sake of Christ and I pray that it is. However I fear the real reason is people are feed up with what they preceive as hypocritical Christians trying to shove religion down their throats as the Christians shot their own wounded. If they remove one nation under God from the pledge there is nothing stopping us from saying it or from teaching our children to say it. However if we don't live as nation under God it is a little hyppcritical to say we do. EdB |
