Kennedy, born on May 29, 1917 (d. 1963). Speech to the Greater Houston Ministerial Association, Rice Hotel, September 12, 1960 “I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute–where no Catholic prelate would tell the President (should he be Catholic) how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote–where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference–and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the President who might appoint him or the people who might elect him.

They know they're the ones ruled by their emotions, that they're the irrational ones. This, like everything else, is a symptom of their denial. It’d their latest attempt at channeling Karl Rove.

Sorry you're just finding out about this now. You should be a little more freedom of religion though and say gods bless america so that you can include all the other ones that people made up and then you should be a little less selfish and say gods bless all people but, be it known that they are not really there. They were just invented by people to so they could have power and control over the not so smart people. I'm sure you're smart enough to now realize this though. Ironic that man made gods and not the other way around. And there's plenty of evidence to support it. See, you learn something every day. Happy 4th! jcc, there is no “God”
