I, for one, am completely FOR this--who better than the omnipotent Jesus Christ can head up America's top position? We all know that now that Barack Obama has been "elected", the United States is at risk, which is why George W. Bush, working hand-in-hand with Pastor Deacon Fred, has appointed Jesus to run the show from here on out. Why spend billions of dollars on mere men when we can hire Jesus to do the job. It may be worth pointing out that preliminary reports are that the government will tithe the equivalent of $10.3 billion dollars over the next three years to Landover Baptist, LLC. in leue of paying any of the current Department of Homeland Security employees, who will be receiving pink slips in their corporate stockings this Christmas .

Praise Jesus, we are finally trusting Him for our homeland security instead of a bloated Washington bureaucracy left over from Clinton. Of course, this doesn't mean that we can let our vigilance waver and release all of the mooselimb terrorists from Guantánamo, as the lie-berals want.

Damnit DeVille (I remember you as a '59 Cadillac), you are on to something AGAIN! Flesh it out a little!

When will it stop? I want to know WHEN will it STOP with these GOD MOCKING ATHEISTIC RABLEROUSERS always trying to DESTROY CHRISTIANITY!!??

Now they're organizing in Kentucky, a purely Christian State, demanding that Jesus be kicked out of the DOF!! THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!!

Atheists want God out of Ky. homeland security

FRANKFORT, Ky. – A group of atheists filed a lawsuit Tuesday seeking to remove part of a state anti-terrorism law that requires Kentucky's Office of Homeland Security to acknowledge it can't keep the state safe without God's help.

American Atheists Inc. sued in state court over a 2002 law that stresses God's role in Kentucky's homeland security alongside the military, police agencies and health departments.

Of particular concern is a 2006 clause requiring the Office of Homeland Security to post a plaque that says the safety and security of the state "cannot be achieved apart from reliance upon almighty God" and to stress that fact through training and educational materials.

The plaque, posted at the Kentucky Emergency Operations Center in Frankfort, includes the Bible verse: "Except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain."

"It is one of the most egregiously and breathtakingly unconstitutional actions by a state legislature that I've ever seen," said Edwin F. Kagin, national legal director of Parsippany, N.J.-based American Atheists Inc. The group claims the law violates both the state and U.S. constitutions.

But Democratic state Rep. Tom Riner, a Baptist minister from Louisville, said he considers it vitally important to acknowledge God's role in protecting Kentucky and the nation.

"No government by itself can guarantee perfect security," Riner said. "There will always be this opposition to the acknowledgment of divine providence, but this is a foundational understanding of what America is."

Kentucky has been at the center of a series of legal battles involving religious issues in recent years, most involving displays of the Ten Commandments in public buildings. One case went to the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled in 2005 that such displays inside courthouses in two counties were unconstitutional.

Kentucky isn't the only state dealing with religious issues, but Ed Buckner, president of American Atheists, said it's alone in officially enlisting God in homeland security.

"I'm not aware of any other state or commonwealth that is attempting to dump their clear responsibility for protecting their citizens onto God or any other mythological creature," Buckner said.

State Rep. David Floyd, R-Bardstown, said the preamble to the Kentucky constitution references a people "grateful to almighty God," so he said he sees no constitutional violation in enlisting God in the state's homeland security efforts.

"God help us if we don't," he said.

AMEN!!

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Atheists are strange people; their reasoning is poor even by their own standards. As someone else once said in similar circumstances, surely even atheists must see that as God exists, then it is sensible to ask for His Help and if, as they would blasphemously have it, He does not exist, no harm is done.

Thus we see that Kentucky has done either nothing or the sensible thing. If it has done nothing, there is no reason for complaint. As they have, in fact, done the sensible thing, there is cause for shouting Hallelujah!

The first time they are saved by the Hand of The Almighty*, the people of Kentucky will thus provide the world with proof of God. If there is a horrible disaster in Kentucky, this will be further proof of God, Whose Ways are ineffable and Who has a Plan.

*which could be any time of course, for we, the most humble amongst His Creations, must never be so irreverent as to expect God to do anything.

[Pastor Isaac Peters]

Those athiests, by trying to make their twisted religion of Godlessness the state religion of Kentucky, are violating their own dogma about the separation of church and state.

Praise GOD!

We need to get something like that here in Iowa as soon as possible!
