I'm Offended!

Wow! Go Glen Beck! Preach it, brother! Tonight, he's pointing out how God is present, in name or symbolically, in nearly every historical monument in Washington. And yet, people still try to claim that America is not about God. Our founders escaped those who sought to persecute them for their beliefs, and many of today's immigrants are here for the same reason. They can believe whatever they want, but why are Americans afraid to stand up for "one nation under GOD"?

When someone comes into your home, do you change the rules to suit them? Not likely. So why does our government keep trying to accomodate those who believe differently? Why are so many offended by the mention of God's name and if so, why did they come here in the first place? I'm not against foreigners, the same applies to some of our own citizens. The fact remains that America was founded on Christian principles, and up until the last 25 years or so, we were proud of that. Why do we try to hide that now?

Non-Christians, be happy that you are free to worship whomever you choose. NOW, LET ME BE FREE TO DO THE SAME! I celebrate CHRISTMAS, not a "holiday". Why should I care about offending you? Nobody cares about offending me by refusing to display the Ten Commandments, or calling December 25 a holiday instead of what it is, the recognition of the birth of Jesus Christ. I AM OFFENDED!! Maybe I should hire my own civil rights attorney to defend my right to say "Merry Christmas".
