I think the ACLU is evil. Yup. Evil. Before my father in law died he said the ACLU has put so many holes in our constitution it's hardly even recognizable anymore. Here's the latest.
The Times-Picayune in Sidell, LA reported that on Tuesday night 250 local residents came out to denounce the ACLU in response to a conroversial portrait of Jesus that hangs inside the courthouse.
Evidently the community is largly Christian, therefore, this picture fairly represents the majority of the residents there. It has been hanging in the building with no problem since it first opened in 1997.
The ACLU angrily gave them one week to remove the portrait or they would sue before their attorneys stepped in and offered a two week extension. How nice of them.
Bit by bit, step by step the ACLU will not be happy until every reference of God is taken out of every public building, monument or placque and then they will start on the private sector.
This reminds me of VMI a few years ago. VMI, a military college founded in the 1800's, has always had prayer before meals. It was tradition going way back to the beginning. Well just a few years ago, one already graduated cadet complained, and out it came. Money talks. If the college, partly government funded, wanted funds the prayer had to go. So, no more prayer.
Where is this coming from?
The American Revolution was produced by the Bible....the Liberty Bell itself bears a scriptural reference-"proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto the inhabitants thereof" (Lev 25:10).
Our most important capitol buildings and monuments display scriptural truths. These include:
The Capitol Building
The Supreme Court Building
The White House
The Library of Congress
The Washington Monument
The Thomas Jefferson Memorial
The Lincoln Memorial
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
The Union Station
Every single charter of the 50 United States includes the word God, and other biblical phrases. Check it out yourself.
Our Presidents are still sworn into their office by placing their right hand on....gasp......THE BIBLE.
American education has its roots in the Bible. The New England Primer was a Bible primer. In 1642 Massachusetts law required schools to operate; their stated reason was....."It being one chief project of that old deluder Satan to keep men from the knowledge of the Scriptures."
Of the ten first colleges in American, nine were founded by churches, and the 10th by evangelist George Whitefild. A large percent of the colleges in America today were founded by Christian organizations.
It seems as tho there is a desperate (and often vicious) attempt to wipe all references of God out of our country today. As we consider this, we are forced to conclude that the actual establishment of the original 13 colonies would have been strictly prohibited under existing laws today! Imagine that.
So the ACLU or any other atheist owes the very rights they enjoy today to those "narrow-minded Puritan bigots" whose love for God and freedom they now so passionately hate. Freedom to hate is still a freedom.
Thank God For America.
