So, you submit your "speech" (it could not be called a prayer) without any reference to God or Jesus. Then when you deliver your "speech" you adlib God and Jesus wherever you want. What are they going to do, shoot you?hangfour wrote:This topic leaves me kind of speechless ...
On the one hand, if the Houston National Cemetery is government. property and wars are for the benefit of the government. then, if the government. is not supposed to favor any religion, leaving the word Jesus out of services makes some sense. On the other hand, pushing separation of church and state to the point that prayers have to be vetted before saying them out loud in public is totally silly.
It just goes to show that, if you mix a little government with a lot of religion, you get more government. I worship the One God not the government; they don't mix. I don't try to reconcile them.
