By the way Mr Paine, if any mention of God by a state is UnConstitutional, as the ACLU would have us believe, then about half the states'Constitutions are Unconstitutional

Florida Constitution PREAMBLE-

We, the people of the State of Florida, being grateful to Almighty God for our constitutional liberty, in order to secure its benefits, perfect our government, insure domestic tranquility, maintain public order, and guarantee equal civil and political rights to all, do ordain and establish this constitution.


The Alabama State Constitution Preamble runs:

We the people of the State of Alabama, invoking the favor and guidance of Almighty God, do ordain and establish the following Constitution.


And so on for 20+ other states. Does this mean we are not a part of the United States? Is the bond between our states and the US dissolved? Do we need to form a Confederacy? Or is the ACLU just full of knockwurst? Which is it?

I've never contended that, anywhere or anytime. -- God bless America & In God We Trust are just fine with me.

-- Does this mean we are not a part of the United States? Is the bond between our states and the US dissolved? Do we need to form a Confederacy? Or is the ACLU just full of knockwurst?
Which is it?

Which? -- 'It' [the 'war' for & against religion] is a bunch of political hype from all factions, the way I see it.
