We are a Christian Nation ... Deal with It | Eastern NC Now

I believe we all have the right to worship as we please, but I also know that our country, the United States of America was founded on Christian principles.

    I believe we all have the right to worship as we please, but I also know that our country, the United States of America was founded on Christian principles. I believe we should be proud of our country. A quote is a quote. It should not be amended or watered down. The news should not be afraid to use someone's quote that refers to God.

    On the "Today Show", one of the wives of one of the Navy Seals killed along with the US ambassador in Libya was being interviewed. He asked her what she would say to her children about their dad and how she would want them to remember him. Her answer, and I quote, "His love for Christ", and then continued on with a few other things. Throughout the day and on the MSN homepage, replaying the story, they have edited the "Love of Christ" part out. Why? Because using the word Christ might offend someone! Well now, it's my turn to be offended! I'm offended that they would edit it out. Offended that Christians are asked to tread lightly so as not to offend someone of another religion. This man loved his country and loved God and gave his life for both.

    This Founding Principle is actually embedded in our Declaration of Independence: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

    I hope every Christian or every person that believes in God who is offended will stand up for this fundamental and founding principle. Be proud of your faith. Did our founding generation come to the shores of North America to freely live out their desire to change their gender? To live as homosexuals? (Not that there is anything wrong with it) Or did they face the unpredictable waters of the Atlantic Ocean and the harsh winters of New England for the ability to freely exercise the dictates of their religion?
