As always your insightfulness and thought have prevoked many firing of nurons in my mind.
I believe that one does not need a priest or a church to believe in god or for god to be with you.
I have been through so much and even though my faith weakened at times I never lost my beliefs no matter where I was, who I was with or what was happening.
There is a reason why we dont allow "god" in school and thats because so many people believe in so many versions and this country was founded on the ideas of equality and freedon for all to do what they wish. However, the univeral truth is this ... in all religions around the world there is one phrase said in many different ways and that is "thou shall not kill". Its a load of crap for anyone to say school killings happened because "god" in the christian sense was not allowed in school.
"God Bless AMERICA, our home sweet home"
"We pledge allegence to the flag of the USof A and to the republic for which it stands one nation under god"
It doesnt say Jesus, Muhommad, Moses or Budda ... just god because that is a universal word, one we all can substitute for the specific god we choose to believe in, the basis of what this country was founded on.
It is ironic that in the world trade center, the symbol of capitalism as we know it, the target of terrorist were men and women represnting almost every country in the world is centered around currency that reads "in god we trust"
No one but all of them.
