Atheist Calls Pledge Unconstitutional
Atheist Calls Pledge Unconstitutional
>If the rest of the court agrees with Newdow now, it could declare that the phrase “under God” breaches the figurative wall separating church and state. That would mean an end to the Pledge of Allegiance as generations of American schoolchildren have known it.
What this is really about is an attempt by some to remove themselves from any accountability to God, but of course just removing any reminders or denying the truth will not absolve us. Truth is still true even if no one believes it.
Chuck Colson recently stated that removing ‘under God’ from the pledge ‘presumably leaves us as one nation under nothing.’
He goes on to say….
“We declare ourselves free from any moral
law or governor higher than the imperial self, and so we become gods.”
Isn’t that descriptive? It sounds like Satan and his desires as recorded in the book of Isaiah…
“I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
It’s ironic that atheists that claim to be “their own person” and not needing “the crutch of religion” are actually doing just the opposite. They are walking the way of the world as influenced by the ruler of this world, the road most taken.
