God & Government
Church and state are separated for a reason. Nowadays our nation truly is a melting pot. If ours is a government of, for and by the people, then every person should be represented. Right?
Old, young, black, white, disabled, Republican, Democrat, no matter who you are or what your affiliation, you are entitled to equal representation in our nation's collective body: The Guv'mint.
Our local City Council recently saw fit to install a plaque at the CC chambers with the national motto "In God We Trust" inscribed thereupon. This brought out people on both sides of the debate. People who did and didn't believe in God said it wasn't proper. Hardline Christians said people could believe whatever they wanted, as long as it didn't stop them from being "right."
I say believe what you want. Live life to its fullest. Let God live in one house and Guv'mint in the other.
