In God We Trust

[Gantlemagne]

This thread title is the official motto of the United States of America.
Rep.'s Tlaib and Omar were sworn into Congress using the Quran.
Does this mean that they were not duly sworn in as Congressional members?

Our official motto DOES NOT state that 'In Allah We Trust'.

Can someone please clear up this confusion?

God is Good in Norse, just do the translation. So, the motto is actually In Good We Trust, and that's a fine motto, but God is usually only seen as being a male deity... so if you wanted to, I think a fine substitute would be In Love We Trust, which would probably please atheists also.

The word 'God' is not the same as the Name of God/the Creator. God is an old Germanic word that basically meant powerful spirit or a being that can be invoked or appealed to and is very similar to the Sanskrit word 'hu'.

Another theory is that 'God' came from the Persian word 'Khoda' which was used for a ruler, heavenly master, etc:

The term derives from Middle Iranian xvatay, xwadag meaning “lord”, “ruler”, “master” (written as Parthian kwdy, Middle Persian kwdy, Sogdian kwdy, etc.). It is the Middle Iranian reflex of Avestan xva-dhata- “self-defined; autocrat”, an epithet of Ahura Mazda. The Pashto term Xwdāi (خدای) is a New Iranian cognate. ​

So the word 'God' does not come from Judaism or Christianity at all, that word is YAHWEH or Jehovah, not a generic 'God'.

But the word 'God' has since Aquinas anyway, in the West, been used to designate the Creator of the universe.

The meaning of the word Allah in Arabic is the same, 'the Creator'.

When Muslims make an oath to Allah, they are making an oath at the same time to Jehovay or Yaweh but byut a different language, that is all the difference there is.

Nope

Islam denies Christ, and not only that, most of their so called scriptures conflict with The Bible.

Islam also denies The Abrahamic Covenant, and denies all The Words of Jesus, calling him a mere prophet subservient to Muhammad who is a false prophet.

When you deny Christ, you are a liar. That is scriptural, so Allah is a Liar and Muhammad is a Liar, The Koran is a Lie, and Muslims are Liars, some knowingly and some unknowingly.

Many Muslims when they do get exposed to the actual gospel and despite the threat of death accept Christ and accept Christianity secretly.

Allah is actually Satan if you study The Koran. He is called The Great Trickster and the Greatest Deceiver of all. "Who can decieve like allah?

God cannot lie, but allah lies, lies, and lies and lies.

Allah is The Father of Lies and was a murderer and liar from the beginning since the very day sin was found in him in heaven when pride and vanity overtook him despite the fact Yaweh had elevated him to being The Covering Cherub, and most beautiful angels of all when his name long ago was Lucifer.

The issue with Muslim Islam is that Muslims are not representing Allah, which would be Alle or Alles in Austrian, Southern Teutonic. They have 99 names for Alle, but Muslim isn't one of them. Muslim in Arabic actually translates to darkness, obscurity, blackness, gloominess; the opposite of many faiths of the Light and Truth; including Christianity.
