Thoughts on our new President.

January 27th, 2009

It seems a lot of people aren’t happy with Obama. The worst complaint I have heard stated so far is that people are angry because Obama pointed out there’s many kinds of Americans and he specifically included us unbelievers in the speech along with the major religions of America. It seems some fanatical’s didn’t like that because in their words “America is a Christian country founded on Christianity. Actually America was founded on the idea of Freedom. Religious freedom included. The Pilgrims didn’t like the church of England telling them how they had to worship and what they had to believe. People seem to forget that.

It is true that most of our founding fathers were Christian. However, not all of them were. There were Free Masons. Thomas Jefferson also purposely left out many religious things from our constitution.

What about liberty and justice for all? Freedom of choice? Are unbelievers not included in “all”? To a lot of people what they chose to believe in is a choice. A choice everyone in this country is free to make. Obama including everyone was the right thing to do. Find something to bitch about that isn’t completely ignorant.
