The CZensoring of God You may also know that Keith Ellison of Minnesota, a Democrat and the first Muslim in Congress, used the Koran at his swearing-in ceremony. If you swear under the Koran, any action taken to defend the faith, is OK – such as lie, cheat or stea In the article titled Lawmaker protests censorship of 'God', published by the Associated Press, October 4, 2007, Jim Abrams reports that as a result of Speaker of the House Pelosi’s decision to censor
God, Republican Rep. Michael Turner is taking exception to the
systematic secularization of policies associated with
flag certificates – in essence censoring God. “Under the flag program, begun in 1937, people may request through senators and House members one of the many flags raised and lowered over the Capitol every day”, writes Abrams. In a flag requests, Abrams writes “The Architect's office, citing its own rules, returned the certificate with the word "God" excised”. Clearly,
Speaker Pelosi has no objection to the US Post
Office's release of the "Muslim Christmas"
stamp - "This is a proud moment for the Postal Service, the Muslim
community, and Americans in general as we issue a
postage stamp to honor and commemorate two important
Islamic celebrations," said Azeezaly S. Jaffer,
Vice President, Public Affairs and Communications for
the Postal Service, in a
press release issued by the US Post Office announcing Stamp
Release No. 01-054/ -
The Press release notes that "the
Eid stamp commemorates the two most important
festivals—or eids—in the Islamic calendar: Eid al-Fitr
and Eid al-Adha. On these days, Muslims wish each
other "Eid mubarak," the phrase featured in
Islamic calligraphy on the stamp. "Eid mubarak"
translates literally as "blessed festival,"
and can be paraphrased as "May your religious
holiday be blessed."- See
below for reaction to such a release by the USPO in
what we refer to as an "righteous
indignation" email doing its rounds in the
Internet again - , or the Intifada debacle associated
with the soon to open Madrassa in Brooklyn, or the
various on-going efforts by the ACLU to remove the Ten
Commandments from public view - apparently the notion
of One Nation Under (one) God has gone the way of the
dinosaur! If this happens in Washington, what can you expect in wannabee cities – say, Coto de Caza, where the local governing body has been trying to censor the CotoBuzz Journal, an electronic newspaper of general circulation, for years? First, the local governing body used what we refer to as the L.I.G..I.T – League of Information Generals in Information Technology to intimidate us. When that failed, they resorted to various botched legal maneuverings. Recently, they have let loose a neuron ominously proclaiming “ If the CotoBuzz Journal has nothing positive to say about the CZ board, it should shut up!” NOTE" A Coto Discussion Forum reader took exception to our posting the "righteous indignation" email therein and said in part: "It may surprise you to know that some people of all faiths or no faith enjoy the spirit of the Christmas season. I have always thought we would all be better off sharing the joy rather than exploiting our differences". Our
response? "You may also know that Keith Ellison of
Minnesota, a Democrat and the first Muslim in
Congress, used the Koran at his swearing-in ceremony.
If you swear under the Koran, any action taken
to defend the faith, is OK – such as
lie, cheat or steal. Of course, that may just mean that faith is
no longer a differentiator when it comes to upholding
the notion of One Nation Under (one) God – Wit
performance of current US Congress"
