Dems Wage War

Minnesota Democrats wage war on God, faith and American history - Fox News

A bill in the Minnesota Senate that would allow schools in the state to voluntarily display the national motto "In God We Trust" has state Democrats spiraling into fits of outrage, because God offends them.

By waging war on God, they are showing contempt for people of faith and disregard for the history of the nation on the floor of the Minnesota Senate.

Democratic Sen. Scott Dibble suggested using "Allah" in place of "God" - as in "In Allah We Trust." Dibble wondered how the bill's sponsor, Republican Sen. Dan Hall, would react, since the words "God" and "Allah" (an Arabic word) mean the same thing.*

Here's a little history lesson for Dibble. "In God We Trust" was recognized as our nation's motto more than 200 years ago when Francis Scott Key penned it in "The Star Spangled Banner" as he watched the Battle of Fort McHenry during the War of 1812.

He wrote: "And this be our motto - 'In God is our trust.' So this motto goes almost as far back as the founding of our country. It's very much ingrained in our heritage.

- Lord, there is a huge disconnect with people who do not see the difference between the One True Living God, and the false god of the Islamic religion. We pray for truth to win over lies.

"You shall have no other gods before me." (Exodus 20:3)

* As was noted in a recent post, Allah was among the pantheon of gods worshipped by Arab people before Mohammed introduced his religion.  Because the people he was attempting to incorporate into his new religion refused to give up their primary 'god' Allah, Mohammed allowed that false god to be the one remaining desert god in the monotheistic religion he introduced to the region.  It has eventually swept throughout the world as Islam.
