The jackass is even dumber than you think Mike. The Pilgrims came to
America to escape religious persecution. They said a touching prayer
the day they departed from England praying for God's help. They said
another prayer of thanksgiving after they had made the passage safely
and again prayed for God's help. Their first act after choosing a site
for their colony was to offer a prayer. One can get a sense of their
faith in the document known as the Mayflower Compact signed by all
while still on board the ship. Columbus also offered a prayer after a
safe passage and invoked the name of God in claiming the new world for
the King of Spain.
A prayer is said at the inauguration of every President of the US.
Both the Senate and the House begin each session with a prayer. Also
read the inscription on the chamber where the Supreme Court sits.
Finally, examine what is printed on each bill and stamped on each coin
by the US mint. The first circumnavigation of the Moon was celebrated
by reading a passage from the Bible.
