The Georgia State Motto and Crest both say that "Wisdom, Justice, and Moderation" Where is the Moderation in fighting over inanimate objects that DO nothing?

How are words inscribed in a rock establishing a religion anymore than words written in a book? Law books, Constitutions, and Sentences often refer to "God" and "soul" and "heaven" and "hell" and many other biblical references. WHY aren't you guys up in arms about that? Why not just get to book burning those law books and state Constitutions which merely MENTION there is a GOD????

Like I said before, there has to always be a beginning and an end. Perpetual only belongs to references of heaven and hell, which I know you don't believe in. Point is that somewhere someone has to say enough is enough. For over 200 years the same words have adorned many hallways throughtout the entire U.S.A. How come all of a sudden in the last few years has there been any contention as to it's validity under the "law"????

The truly ironic thing is that in order to argue a relatively new argument the detractors use one of the OLDEST Constitutional ideas known to man....."the separation of church and state"......although not one person yet has proven WHY our fore fathers would litter their documents with the word "GOD" yet now all of a sudden everyone THINKS they meant we have to have a Godless Nation.....


We all pick and choose are battles with how the government abuses its powers. I'm sure there are things that get under your skin. But should it be swept under the rug? Your voice should just as loud as the voice of 200,000 Americans. If you wanted to take action b/c the city of Atlanta is paying $125,000 in fines every month for polluting the Chattahoochee.....I'd support you. I expect all Americans to blow the whistle on government fraud. Will it make a difference? LOL...probably not. But we all still have to try. We can't just look away and hope it blows over.




We have to fight for what believe no matter how trivial. But we are creating a huge divide in this country during the process. I don't see it slowing down anytime soon.
Why is that you condemn the "Christians" for protesting, yet right here you say we all MUST???? Can't have it both ways.
