    As a leftist, is this something that you're happy about?

    Hello Aaron,

    https://news.gallup.com/poll/393737/belief-god-dips-new-low.aspx

    As a leftist, is this something that you're happy about?

    What makes you think I am a "leftist"? Is god a "leftist"?
    Does god even exist? I dunno. I never met him. Or her. Or it.
    Or whatever it might be. Assuming it exists. Which seems to
    be questionable by many.

    The Framers of the Constitution made no mention of a god or gods.
    The Framers of the Constitution mandated no religious tests be
    used for holding office. On what basis did the Congress vote the
    phrase "In God We Trust" as our national motto? Why did Congress
    choose to add the words "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance,
    which was written by a socialist?

    The poll shows belief in god slipping among all groups in the USA.
    It is not a "leftist" poll, or slanted in any way.

    It could be some people in this country are finally waking up,
    realizing not everything is as it seems.

    For Life,
    Lee

    God is never convenient for the leftist agenda,
    so they're trying to normalize godlessness.

    Not believing in your precious "God" is not the same as being godless. Originally the Bible talked about gods, not god. This was changed in a rewrite around 700 B.C. from plural to singular, to prove their monotheistic agenda.

    Fanatic believers in your precious God has in fact been responsible for most major atrocities that has happened, and still are happening, the last two millennia all over the entire world.

    I don't care what happened in the past - tell me how god believers are responsible for the atrocities of Joe Biden & Vladimir Putin?

    Biden is not responsible for the atrocities committed in the USA in your god's name.

    As for Putin, he have the Russian Orthodox Church supporting him. But I guess Fox News never told you that?

    He calls himself a Catholic, but he lets thousands of people die along the US/Mexico border, he murdered 11 children in Afghanistan, and he is the #1 reason for the Ukraine invasion. Atrocities.

    As for Putin, he have the Russian Orthodox Church supporting him. But
    I guess Fox News never told you that?

    That sounds like an exageration. Sometimes we pray for bad people to change.

    Part of why you're a "leftist" is because you're promoting a story about godlessness being on the rise. God is never convenient for the leftist agenda, so they're trying to normalize godlessness.

    What other "good" can come from a poll like that?

    Tomorrow they'll be saying something like "A recent gallup poll suggests that most Americans are in favor of reducing the penalties for rape."

    Hmmmm, what "good" can come from a poll like that?
