I stopped watching Stossel, but did he really say that about our money?

Yeah. He claimed there was nothing about God on our money till he was 10 years old which would have been in the late 50s.

He also bashed the Puritans for coming here and imposing their law. He didn’t mention the fact that they imposed their law on themselves because there was no one else to impose them on.

He claims “blue laws” were the result of churches imposing their will on government. In reality is was a much more Christian society wanting those laws. I knew an old lady who ran a party store she and her husband had owned since 1038. She told me that the practice of wrapping single bottles of alcohol in a brown paper sack was pretty standard practice anyway. She said her minister politely asked she and her husband to do so and they did.

The idiot’s show will probably rerun this evening.
