"...We invaded the Philippines
causing tens of thousands to die and other horrible atrocities because
President William McKinley received word from god that those people
should be Christianized. Is that how we want our country to be? Do we
want decisions based on logic and reason with a spirit of individual
rights and liberties for all people, or do we want to be led by the
voices in someone’s head telling them what they want to hear under the
disguise of god? Do we want a president to lead with his brain or his
knees?
The United States engaged in World War II because Franklin Delano
Roosevelt didn’t “turn the other cheek.” We engaged in war because we
didn’t “love our enemy.” We completely discarded the “thou shall not
kill” commandment. It’s time for Christian nationalists to be honest.
Our Constitution bears extremely little if any resemblance to the Bible.
The Bible is not how we conduct policy. No matter how much we print god
on our money, or force it in our Pledge, or find other ways to ram it
down the throats of our kids, it’s not what this country was founded on.
We can do so much better, and it’s time to do better...?
