It's official, the Supreme Court just ruled we are a Christian nation

[Erinwltr]

Ugh. False news title... The Press wondered if Eisenhower running on Faith was a violation of the First Amendment. Many balked at the new Under God phrase added in the United States pledge of Allegiance. The court found the "In God We Trust" to also be a no subscription phrase. Not promoting and establishing a Christian faith. Circle the wagons, federal government.
Just remember boys and girls. God is not Christian, specifically. The German word for Deus of Latin origin from the 1200's. Marriage is universally a relationship or something for some amount of time. And when people fight a second Protestant Reformation its basically a wash.

It's not false the supreme Court ruled we always was and always will be a Christian nation.


.

That is not the ruling.

Like we always said, in God we trust.


Supreme Court rejects atheists' attempt to scrub 'In God We Trust' off US currency

Supreme Court rejects atheists' attempt to scrub 'In God We Trust' off US currency


The Supreme Court rejected an atheist case Monday to remove "In God We Trust," the national motto, from all coins and currency from the Department of Treasury.


Michael Newdow, the same activist attorney who tried to remove "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance, lost his case, arguing Congress' mandate to inscribe "In God We Trust" on currency was a government endorsement of religion and a violation of the First Amendment


.

So, Only Christians believe in god? That is going to come a quite a shock to a lot of people!

 

[initforme]

If we are truly a Christian nation we have let greed and materialism get in the way of Christ's message which is to focus on helping the least among us. Corporatists need to take heed.

Actually, no. The SCOTUS just affirmed the First Amendment and upheld the "Free exercise thereof".

It is unfortunate that some people can not spot an obvious photoshopped sign.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

So in which God do we Trust?

The Wiccan God?

The Hindu God?

Odin and Thor!!!


Valhalla, I am coming!!!

[Darkwind]

In God we Trust.

All others pay cash.

In addition to the other error (about Christian nation) in the heading of the OP, the SC did not "rule" on anything. The court merely declined to hear the case, based on the plaintiff's flawed legal logic that was presented. They can always agree to hear another similar case, based on a different argument.

In this context...

The United States of America can best be described as a "secularized Christian nation"...

It owes its core of collective morality, and its sense of right and wrong, to 1600 years of Christian teachings and philosophy and values...

Its legal system is based primarily upon English law, which, in turn, has deep roots in the canon law of the Roman Catholic Church...

Further developed and refined by a couple of centuries of English Protestant Reformer alterations to both canon and statutes...

Further developed and refined by the addition of pre-Revolution French law and post-revolution Napoleonic Code...

All of which also borrows heavily from Roman Law of antiquity, lovingly preserved for millennia by the Roman Catholic Church...

We found it necessary and wise to separate Church and State very early in the history of our Republic...

But given that The Collective... American society at-large... is largely comprised of Christians and their descendants...

We make room for Jews and Hindus and Confucians and atheists and agnostics and even Muslims, but...

When you get right down to where the Bear $hits in the woods... we are a Christian nation which forces a secular separation...

Which is exactly what we need to be...

However, if you ever delude yourself that Christ has been left out of the equation on the secular side of the fence...

One need look (nor listen) no further than the Battle Hymn of the Republic, which mentions Christ by name...



And, if Christ was not mentioned explicitly in the ruling, it is sufficient that God-at-large scored a "win" in that ruling...

Given that the vast majority of Believers in this country are Christians, it may justifiably be posited that...

Christianity registered a "win" on the Supreme Court for once... and atheisim lost big-time... it's been far too long... enjoy...

so you are saying that GOD means ONLY the christian god? and not any other god?

Nope.

But given that (a) any religious SCOTUS Justice is likely to be Christian and (b) the vast majority of religious people in the population at-large is (and has been throughout the history of the Republic) Christian, it may be posited with some considerable justice, that the God-concept held collectively, as expressed in government, is the Christian perception of the godhead.

...I live free from your religion...

No matter... there's room in the tent for all... just don't expect to be able spoil it for The Majority any longer.

Trust in God and everything else is less of a problem.

But Muslims and Athiests are always cool with them.

All religious have the right to worship.

Nobody has the right to stop me from worshipping.

Who can blame us? After all, now that the head of the GOP party is cool with grabbing strange *****, some are going to where the grass is greener!

 

[Erinwltr]

Because their is only one God?

There is, and can be, only one God.

Do you really think the universe was created by committee?

There's a rational question.

Man, unless I misunderstood you, I hope you are wrong.
