THE LAW IS THE LAW So "if" the US government determines that it is against the law for the words "under God" to be on our money, then, so be it.
And "if" that same government decides that the "Ten Commandments" are not to be used in or on a government installation, then, so be it.
I say, "so be it," because I would like to be a law abiding US citizen.
I say, "so be it," because I would like to think that smarter people than I are in positions to make good decisions.
I would like to think that those people have the American public's best interests at heart.
BUT, YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE I'D LIKE?
Since we can't pray to God, can't Trust in God and cannot post His Commandments in Government buildings, I don't believe Government (Federal, State and Local) and its employees should participate in Easter and Christmas celebrations which honor the God that our government is eliminating from many facets of American life.
I'd like my mail delivered on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving & Easter. After all, it's just another day.
I'd like the" US Supreme Court to be in session on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving & Easter as well as Sundays." After all, it's just another day.
I'd like the Senate and the House of Representatives to not have to worry about getting home for the "Christmas Break." After all it's just another day.
I'm thinking a lot of my taxpayer dollars could be saved, if all government offices & services would work on Christmas, Good Friday & Easter. It shouldn't cost any overtime since those would be just like any other day of the week to a government that is trying to be "politically correct."
In fact....I think our government should work on Sundays (initially set aside for worshiping God....) because, after all, our government says that it should be just another day....
What do you all think???? If this idea gets to enough people, maybe our elected officials will stop giving in to the "minority opinions" and begin, once again, to represent the "majority" of ALL of the American people.
SO BE IT...........Please Dear Lord, Give us the help needed to keep you in our country! 'Amen' and 'Amen' Touché!

Who says, "we can't pray to God, can't Trust in God"?

you seriously think that if the government worked seven days that would save you money? that just means that they've got another day to spend it on!! i don't remember who said it, but someone said the worst thing they did in washington was aircondition the buildings, this made it bearable for the crooks to steal all summer long!! as for the post office, last tuesday i got my whole three letters (right after MLK day). just think, if they had one day aweek to deliver my mail, they'd be in the black!! by the way, my brother works for the post office, from what he tells me it's the most disorganized, mismanaged business in the world. (he's probably right) i think we need more days off, lets get some "sheria" law going here!! mix it with everyother religion on earth, then our government will be closed 300 out of 365 days!!  |

Yeah, I have to count on the USPS to deliver my prescriptions. I'm now out and it's been 11 days on the way. Yeah, I know MLK day slowed it up. Now the USPS wants to eliminate Saturday delivery. It's time for my mail order pharmacy to start using Fedx or UPS.
