Don’t know how many of you saw this today, but for the first time in our nation’s history, a Hindu led the opening prayer for the United States Senate. This is from a nation claims to be “One Nation Under God.” Certainly, you would agree that the same God that this nation was founded upon is not the deity supreme that Rajan Zed was praying to. Hindu is a polytheistic religion, having gods in everything, be from the sky to the earth to the ants. This is not my God. My God is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the one who hung the moon and stars in the sky. My God is the one who created the sky, earth, and ants. I do realize that one of the most beautiful aspects of our nation is the right to pray to whom we choose. If Mr. Zed wants to pray and meditate upon the earth, so be it, that is his choice. However, for us to claim to be a Christian nation and allow this sort of thing is a travesty. I can only wonder how our forefathers, the men who sacrificed so much for us to have this great country, would feel about this sort of thing. I am almost certain that it would not have happened without more of an outrage than there was. My, how far our great country has come.
