What does NBC have against God?
Washington Times, Fox News via GOP USA ^ | January 10, 2015 7:13 am | Bobby Eberle

Well, they did it again. A few years ago, NBC was roundly criticized for omitting "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance in one of their promotional pieces. Now, they are doing it again. The question is... why?

As reported in The Washington Times, the promotional video for NBC's new show "Allegiance" uses the Pledge of Allegiance in the background of the clip:

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Notice anything missing? The Pledge is used in its entirety except for the words "under God." Fox News' Todd Starnes called NBC to find out why they left out "under God" AGAIN, but he received no reply.

It's not the first time the Peacock Network has dissed a deity.

In 2011 NBC was forced, yes forced, to apologize after they omitted the phrase "one nation under God" from its coverage over the U.S. Open Championship. It happened not once, but twice.

Here is a video of one from NBC's U.S. Open promos:

As noted in Todd Starnes' story:

NBC released a statement to the trade publication Broadcasting & Cable and said the decision to eliminate God was "made by a small group of people."

"This was a bad decision," NBC stated.

So... if it was a bad decision back then, why are they doing it again now?

Here's the trailer for NBC's "Allegiance":

Did they really think people wouldn't notice? NBC may have a problem with God, but most people in America do not.

Statists believe that the state is the only source of moral and ethical values. They seek to eliminate any competition: family, church.

Except when it comes to a middle-eastern death cult, which they love, promote, and actively embrace.

Liberals aren't a afraid of Christians, Conservatives or Republicans, whom they mock & ridicule daily.

But they are scared as hell of islam, muslims & the muslim brotherhood who do not tolerate feminism, homosexuals & free speech.

They hate God because they are evil.

“Those with functioning brains can clearly see that liberals get upset when they see or hear anything related to G-d.”

G-d is a threat to their power.

People of faith, nothwithstanding the holiday faithful, don’t usually do the Liberal goosestep.

Liberals need the whole human soul and not just a part of it for the socialist revolution to succeed. (They hate anything that competes with their desire to be god-like.)

IMHO

...the decision...was made by a small group of people"

And yet the "decisions" are always in one ideological direction.

I thought that last DNC convention was very telling, a watershed moment even, for those calling themselves Democrats to decide where they will stand, with God or against,

I’m sure they’ll elect “Senator Villaraigosa” soon enough as his reward,

“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;” Romans 1:28

This verse has become reality right in front of us, in our own hearing,

This has become truth for our elected leaders, for the news media and what they will support, and for the entertainment industry where their every thought already was to do evil continually, but where even so-called ‘family’ programming has now become vile and corrupted, reprobates one and all
