More anti-Christian revisionism
From WorldNetDaily...
"While I was in the Smithsonian Air and Space museum, I was reading a placard regarding the trip of the Apollo 8 flight, which looped around the moon on Christmas Eve," wrote Paul Hardy. "They showed a photo of the Earth from the moon, and the placard said (and I'm not kidding, you can read it yourself), 'the astronauts had brought an ancient religious text with them and began to read, 'In the beginning, God created heaven and earth…'' AN ANCIENT RELIGIOUS TEXT? Why is it that they couldn't even say the BIBLE, as everyone knows what that is. My only surprise was that they actually printed the word 'God' on the placard. My wife and I laughed at this PC silliness."...
"The current story on the U.S. Supreme Court reminded me of how the Ten Commandments were purposely blurred out of a photo of Pennsylvania Supreme Court judges in an official brochure last year," [Rich Campbell] said....
"Every part of the frame is clear and in focus, /except for the words of the Ten Commandments. They electronically blurred out that portion of the photograph!"/ wrote Family Institute President Michael Geer.
"Apparently, those words are simply too offensive to be published in the same photo with Pennsylvania's Supreme Court Justices!...
Rob Hajicek told WND he had been visiting Boston during a recent outing to historical locations, and there was little eventful until a tour of the downtown Boston area began, and the tour guide announced that the Puritans were just an earlier version of the Taliban.
"Basically what he shared was that the town of Boston loved riots, and John Hancock, as the richest man in the area, was paying men to do these things," he said. Essentially, "the people who fought at Bunker Hill, Lexington, Concord were displaced people who left Boston because English soldiers took their jobs."
"[He said] displaced workers were leading the revolution, that kind of thing," he told WND....
Kay Harrigan-Scott told WND that she was visiting the new World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C., and got an "unexpected" history lesson.
...On the Pacific side of the memorial, several people had gathered to read the words of President Roosevelt in announcing the attack on Pearl Harbor:
"Yesterday, December 7, 1941 – a date which will live in infamy – the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked…"
Harrigan-Scott said a woman was reading the words aloud:
"With confidence in our armed forces, with the abounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph!"
Then the reverie was interrupted. "Wait a minute," the woman said. "They left out the end of the quote. They left out the most important part. Roosevelt ended the message with 'so help us God.'"
She said she remembered that speech....
"The people who edited out that part of the speech when they engraved it on the memorial could have fooled me. I was born after the war! But they couldn't fool the people who were there. Roosevelt's words are engraved on their hearts," she said.
Are Members of Congress being made aware of this?
