Getting upset because religion is taken away from public institutions? I think the whole national anthem is a bit much because it says god a few times. But ive heard many Christians get upset because of it, and saying how the government it evil/devil because of such actions. Why? I have never understood it, this country was brought upon being able to practice your own religion without being "frowned" upon.

I don't see many Christians getting upset, its more the unbelievers who are raging.

Reminds me of this verse:

Quote
Psalm 2

1 Why do the nations conspire

and the peoples plot in vain?

2 The kings of the earth take their stand

and the rulers gather together

against the Lord

and against his Anointed One.

3 “Let us break their chains,” they say,

“and throw off their fetters.”

4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs;

the Lord scoffs at them.

5 Then he rebukes them in his anger

and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,

6 “I have installed my King

on Zion, my holy hill.”

We are getting upset because Christianity is what the nation was founded on..
Now it is irrefutable that our country is on a huge downfall.
Not to mention this once wonderful country is now overall losing faith and losing its way with the Heavenly Father.
It is not at all coincidental that as the word of God falls out of the heads of a majority of Americans,
Corruption and lust for power eases its way into government and soon they are controlling everything due to paranoia driven corruption. That is plain as day.
America is losing its way with God, back when America was thriving everybody belonged to a Church they loved, they spoke the Gospel among each other regularly.
Government is basing all of its regulations on government and man controled testing done in top secret locations with top secret people. Because government is evil. The only testing should be government to the gospel.
NO MAN WILL EVER BE ABLE TO RULE CORRECTLY. We are flawed and susceptible to lust for power. God is the only one fit for rule.
If any branch of government would be run by God it would be flawless.. Because God is flawless.. So to have a quote "flawless" government, you set up a foundation of morals set forth by God.

If you look at old art work of capital estates and government sanctified buildings you see MULTIPLE preachers and pastors.
You should do some research on Gouveneur Morris. He was a very good man.


E/ Please if you have any other questions pm me. ill gladly go into further detail if necessary.
