Most politicians, whether they are Democrat or Republican, conclude their campaign speeches with, “God bless you and God bless America!”
Sometimes I wonder which god they are referring to? Is it the Christian God, the Jewish God, the Muslim God, Krishna, Manitou, or any of the many Hindu gods?
Even if they limit their god to a Christian god, again which is it? The Roman Catholic one, the Lutheran, Presbyterian, Baptist, Mormon, Unitarian, Episcopalian. Is it the Weather Permitting or some god yet to be discovered? I wonder!
Also, in the Grand Marais newspaper there are advertisements for 15 different places one can go to and worship a god. They are all supposedly Christian, but are they promoting the same god?
If not, then there must be different gods. If they are, why not just gather in one place and save a lot of money and give it to the needy? Again, I just wonder?
