A local auto body shop displayed on the sign in front of their shop these words: “One Nation Under God”. I thought how prosaic those words are but completely at odds with today’s life.
More than fifty million Americans have no belief in any supernatural being. At least three times that number does not attend church regularly if ever. So much for “Under God”.
“One Nation” is pretty much a dream since we may not have been so divided since the Civil War. We can only hope that the divisiveness in America will decline before it causes an irreparable split. It is difficult to see the split healing when a President and the radical members in the House and Senate work to excite a radical base they can’t control. No, we are far from a cohesive country.
Yes “One Nation Under God” is just a dream that may never happen again in my lifetime unless some threat causes it.
