"America Bless God"

[BurtWorm]

I saw a car with two bumper stickers that said this on it. :wtf:

[redqueen]

1. I've seen several of those here.

Those people need to check into an institution.

[StopTheMorans]

2. it should have said "Moran Don't Breed"

and with * saying shit like "crusade", no wonder the rest of the world thinks we're trying to foist "our God" onto them...

:puke:

[Dr.Phool]

9. I saw one that said

Help stamp out inbreeding- Ban Country Music

[kick-ass-bob]

3. I googles - its a freaking website!

Checking it out now...

5. Quotes from website:

Read the letters of George Washington. Read the Mayflower compact and see for yourself. The people who came to establish America came as Born-Again Christians. They dedicated this land to Jesus Christ. Most of the men who signed the Declaration of Independence were Christian Pastors!

me: Yes, but not all - and I think there might have even been an atheist/agnostic sign!

Our desire is to once again see our beautiful country become the Christian nation God had in mind when he sent our forefathers to establish the United States of America… "One Nation Under God!"

7. You know what's sad about all of this?

Despite the fact that the original settlers were, in fact, Puritans, the majority of the founding fathers explicitly stated that the American govnerment was not based on religious principles, and some even went so far as to decry organized religion as the prison of the small minded.

But them was big words.

10. Fact is

That the Puritans and Plymouth Rock, were founded about 170 years BEFORE the constitution was written. They weren't founding fathers. Things changed quite a bit in the intervening years.

14. Faith and Fact contradict all the time.

[BurtWorm]

8. Yeah, I see it now.

So when people sneeze, should we say, "You bless God!"? :wtf:

11. "Born-again"? what a bunch of HOOEY....

"The people who came to establish America came as Born-Again Christians."

Bullshit. The "Born-Again" movement places its birth in a warehouse-cum-church on Azusa Street in San Francisco in April, 1906.

The concept of being "Born Again" wasn't realized in the mid-1700's.

"America leads the world in technology. We lead the world in weaponry. "

Oh, yes, VERY important, that weaponry...Can't shake your dick at the rest of the world without it....

4. I don't get it

Are we better than God? Do we have more power than God? What are they saying here? :shrug:

[BurtWorm]

6. I do get it. They're saying America should give god its due.

I didn't get it till I checked out a Website thanks to kick-ass-bob's kick-ass suggestion.

[Zenlitened]

15. "We're more popular than Jesus now"

[ThorsHammer]

12. I didn't get it at first either

Someone else had posted that it means that God has blessed us, and that we need to be thankful. The wording of the sticker is unusual, but it does make some sense.

[KurtNYC]

13. * once said "today is a day to give blessings to America as well as

to Almighty God"

Which to me translates to 'God bless God'
