It seems that we are facing the fact that the Most Merciful, All Knowing, President Barack Obama has left out the phrase "under God" from his reading of the Gettysburg Address on this the 150th Anniversary.
You will notice, that he pauses, which leads me to believe that it is there (and he knows it is there) but deliberately leaves it out.
Why?
I believe that by removing GOD, and doing it on a regular basis, you get people into the habit of thinking that GOD is not the most important person in our lives -- the STATE is.
And that is where he wants to take us -- that the STATE is the arbiter of all things, not GOD.
