IN GOD WE TRUST?

I RECEIVED A REQUEST
TO SIGN A PETITION

TO KEEP GOD

ON OUR MONEY

AND

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

A NOBLE THOUGHT

A NO BRAINER

OR SO I THOUGHT



BUT I WONDERED

IN MULTIPLE AMERICA

WHICH GOD IS MEANT

HINDHU

NATIVE AMERICAN

MUSLIM

CHRISTIAN

JEW

BUDDHISTS

WHO ARE REACHING FOR SOMETHING

THAT HAS NO NAME



I DON’T THINK GOD

MINDS

SHARING THE STAGE

WITH HIM/

HER SELF



I THINK BEHIND THE BLUSTER

IS THE THOUGHT

IT SHOULD BE THE CHRISTIAN GOD



DOES PUTTING HIS NAME ON MONEY

DENOTE A BETTER BEHAVIOR



WILL THERE BE LESS RACE HATRED



WILL THE POOR

SICK

ELDERLY

BE ABLE TO LIVE WITH DIGNITY



WILL THE YOUNG

HAVE A LIFE WITHOUT WAR



WILL DENOMINATION WARFARE CEASE



WILL CHILDREN BE SAFE IN SCHOOLS



WILL MARRIAGE

AT FIFTY PERCENT DIVORCE RATE

BE RETURNED TO SACRAMENTAL STATUS



BEFORE I GO ON

I CONSIDER MYSELF A CHRISTIAN

THAT JESUS CAME TO SAVE THE WORLD

NOT JUST A FEW

HE CAME TO SAVE THE WORLD



THE MECHANICS OF HOW

ARE IN GOD’S HANDS

WHOSE MERCY IS GREATER

THAN OUR ABILITY TO COMPREHEND IT



IF THIS PUTS ME OUTSIDE THE MAINSTREAM

LIGHT THE FIRE

BUT A GOD WHO WOULD CONDEMN

SOMEONE

WHO TRIES TO LIVE WELL

BY HIS FAITH STANDARDS

IS A GOD

I COULD NOT SERVE



EVEN LESS

PUT HIS NAME ON MY MONEY
