I admit that I have a hard time putting into words what I want to say, so bear with me, please. I am an elderly woman. Our constitution is being challenged by many today as the WH seemingly is taking us from a capitalism nation under God to a socialism nation under the Government's control. Our first admendment does give us Freedom of Religion...but it is more in today's world as Freedom from Religion. Yes, I believe that all should be able to worship in their own way; we are a nation made up of immigrints and our Indian population; our constitution states that...but seriously, ask yourself...where will we be if this thrend of 'tramping on our constitution' continues? Will we still have our 'Freedom of Religion'? I don't know, do you? National Day of Prayer for our country is being done away with...didn't have one last year. The year before that The Graham Orginzation was not allowed to pray...BILLY GRAHAM who has prayed with many many of our ex- presidents! I don't have many more years left here on earth but I have grandchildren, great grandchildren...I am concerned. I pray that saying what I have said did not offend anyone...that was not my intention. But we are at a very critical stage in our country...take the time to really read the admendment and try to see the why it could be very important to our future and the time it takes to go vote. Thank you for giving this posting your attention...GOD BLESS AMERICA AND OUR VETERANS!
