Ever read the story of the Jews in Egypt. They were all slaves at one time. Same God then and same God now.

Read it again.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob has remained the same throughout.
I'd recommend a concordance, and/or a friend who knows Hebrew.

Maybe she will go after the military next or have God removed from our money. Atheist will never remove the faith of Christians by taking away "things". Even if Atheist starting putting Christians to death like the Iranian Pastor they wouldn't give up their faiths.

The scholarship was created for her. This wasn't an existing scholarship that she "won" for her efforts. And yes - I support it wholeheartedly, and I'm very proud of her, and everyone like her.

Are you proud of the Christians who bullied her, insulted her, and made threats against her life?

Really? I would have perceived it as a war on secularism, since the encroachments take place in schools, courthouses, and public land. How often do churches complain of secular intrusion into places of worship?

Hence, the "War on Secularism."

Well we did have Jesus pay us a visit and that helped people get connected with God again. Tends to make things mellow again.
