That Stupid Cross On Government Land

Oh...oh oh oh, OH oh....I think they hafta go (that was my attempt at a joke*). Well, maybe they just don't understand, you know, the constitution, the law of the land-n-stuff.

"Reporting from Washington— 

The House on Tuesday approved a measure that seeks to permit religious symbols on federal war memorials, a response to a court ruling that declared a cross atop a San Diego memorial violated the Constitution (link)."

"They" should use info from Zeitgeist and debate that the cross is a universal symbol and not a Christian symbol. funny.

What's the big deal-eo anywho, it's just a FREEKIN CROSS on government land and nobody relates that to Christianity. Sure there is all that church-n-state stuff but I wanted to address something else. A couple of months ago, and a couple of articles ago-I think it was in a comment section-a soldier said something like...they didn't even fight in a war and they will never go on base to see it, so WTF. I fought and I like it. So there. Me, "ugh."

"Thanks for fighting for us soldier. now we can eat freedom fires, " Fat American white kid.

What is dude sayin'. I get the impression from that comment, and others like it (and there are many like minded, peeps) is that soldier dude has a little more say in it than Joe civilian. He's fought and he's served, he's Christian, so dagnabit...it's OK by him. Perhaps he's even the kind that will cry religious persecution and claim that his religious freedom has been hijacked by those secularists, by people that interpret the constitution different than he (perhaps, I dunno, just sayin'). These are the kinda peeps that also say things like, "Well, if you don't like this country, then git out!" Whoa Nelly....c'mon now.

Believers have hijacked many thingies that belong to everyone. For example one cannot be "spiritual" or have a transcendent experience if one does not believe in the correct religion (preferably American Christianity...for white people....dudes only. No "bundles of sticks."). The word "life" or "pro life" was stole by the pro lifers. Automatically, if you are against them, then you are against "life (then we halfta waste time explaining the opposite.sheez). Which brings me to this...

"Bundle of sticks." I thought it was funny.

If you do not subscribe to the American Christian God of American Exceptionalism and dominionism, then there is no way that you can be patriotic. No way. It's impossible. YOUUUUU do not have that invisible laser beam of patriotism (similar to the laser beam of the ability to love. No God, no ability to love for you, you heathen.) being sent into your incapable mere earthly self. We cannot have simple appreciation and gratitude for all the brave men and women that have sacrificed for the general public's freedom. We are not capable according to soldier dude.

So because we will never go on base to see this particular violation of church and state and because he did what he was supposed to do, which is follow orders because he signed up for that (and he happens to be Christian), then he has a little more right than you and I and he is justified in not following the constitution.
