Pray a 2006 Kentucky law is upheld jailing atheists. -

Gang, I want to see us really pray hard for this. Jesus and God are under attack again and only our prayers can save them. It seems the atheists are attempting to overturn Kentucky's homeland security law that states every homeland security office in the state must bear this plaque acknowledging almighty God.
In Kentucky, a law requires the state’s Office of Homeland Security to post a plaque that begins with this inspiring quote:
"The safety and security of the Commonwealth cannot be achieved apart from reliance upon Almighty God."
The law tells us: "The safety and security of the Commonwealth cannot be achieved apart from reliance upon Almighty God as set forth in the public speeches and proclamations of American Presidents, including Abraham Lincoln's historic March 30, 1863, presidential proclamation urging Americans to pray and fast during one of the most dangerous hours in American history, and the text of President John F. Kennedy's November 22, 1963, national security speech which concluded: "For as was written long ago: 'Except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.'"
I want to see you all down on your knees that the Supreme Court upholds this law. ONE NATION UNDER GOD.
Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.

The God part is fine, but I think it should be unconstitutional to make people post a plaque bearing a quote from a Democrat. Democrats don't care about our national security, they just care about imposing their atheistic, socialist agenda on the rest of us.

It is worth mentioning that both mentioned presidents were called early by the Lord, in fact not too long after saying these two speeches. God clearly is involved in protecting the Godly American Nation, otherwise, if these two presidents had lived longer, they undoubtedly would have done something that would have undermined American security!
Praise !

10 % of the population of the USA, that's roughly 30.000.000 peope. Imprisoning them all would cost around 600 billions. Your federal budget is at about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_...federal_budget
To imprison all these people, you have increase governement spending by roughly 25%. The overall budget is going to shrink, by roughly 10%, if you imprison these guys (to my knowledge, prisoners usually have no high paid jos where they pay taxes). So that's roughly 28 % more taxes you would have to pay to the state. even if this was legal, would you be willing to do that? And are you sure every other christian in the country is ready to pay for your quirky idea?

True enough. If prisoners had high paid joo lawyers, they would never have been convicted.

Real Americans know that we owe everything to the Almighty.
Quote:
"I don't know that atheists should be regarded as citizens, nor should they be regarded as patriotic. This is one nation under God."
-George H.W. Bush, August 1987

When you consider the ballooning deficit and out of control spending, perhaps a better course of action would be to simply deport atheists. They are, after all, not Real Americans. We deport non-Americans all the time. I don't see why this is different. And since many atheists own property in the US, unlike Mexicoons and other poors, we could cover the initial costs and fill up church coffers by seizing their assets and distributing the booty among the faithful, richly rewarding us for our faith and devotion.
II Thessalonians 1:7-9
And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power
The man who is being progressively sanctified will inescapably sanctify his home, school, politics, economics, science, and all things else by understanding and interpreting all things in terms of the Word of God and by bringing all things under the Dominion of Christ the King. -R.J. Rushdoony
