In God We Trust Song – Banned
Category: America Gone Mad, Exposing The Left, Liberalism, Music, Obamutopia“The song you are about to listen to is from a Las Vegas Diamond Rio Concert. They received an immediate resounding standing ovation, and continue to do so every time they perform it! Sadly, major radio stations wouldn’t play it because it was considered ‘politically incorrect’. Consequently, the song was never released to the public.” – Playingam

Thanks be to God that He allowed development of the internet. This is a great piece!
This song is a cheap exploitation of religion and something I don’t think Jesus would approve of. I find it offensive when people try to make money off religion that have nothing to do with charity but rather for personal reason. It has less to do with PC rather then it would fit better on Christian stations. I’m sure the record company didn’t think it would sell. People may enjoy it once but it’s not the kind of song that too many people would request on most radio stations. I know I wouldn’t.
If they had left out the part about “there are some who want to drive him out” this wouldn’t have been so controversial. As it is, it comes off as promoting the US as a theocracy.
Not so much “politically incorrect” as factually incorrect. The founding fathers (Jefferson, Washington, Adams, Hamilton, Franklin, Paine, etc) were mostly Deists, not Christians and they would be aghast at the suggestion that the USA was founded as a “Christian Nation”. It is simply not true.
Revisionist history with a hint of bigotry that only tugs at the heart if the brain is on pause.
While our nation was founded on Christian principles, it is incorrect to say we are a Christian nation, other than Christianity being the majorty religion. From the beginning, our founding fathers believed the freedom to worship whatever a citzen chooses was a basic right, be that Christianity or not. They recognized the importance of seperation of church and state and as a result to worship as we please is guaranteed by the Constitution. It is highly unlikely this song was banned because it was “politically incorrect” by the majority of radio stations. The majority of radio stations have conservative ownership and control. Even if the owners were not conservatives, most radio stations would play the song if management believed their listeners would enjoy it, or, more importantly, if it would attract more listeners and more advertising revenue. While we are a nation that “Trust[s] in God”, we gaurantee by law the right not to trust God,or even believe in him, very pretty cool. A national day of prayer is prefectly fine as long as citizens have the right to not pray on that day and to ignore it completly if they choose.
