  • I don't know. If it is a sin, it is one I have never confessed because I used to say it  in school.

  • I don't know if it is morally wrong.  I will not do it becasue we are most certainly not a nation under God, and it seems dishonest to say we are.  
    Stir up within Thy Church, we beseech Thee, O Lord, the Spirit with which blessed Josaphat, Thy Martyr and Bishop, was filled, when he laid down his life for his sheep: so that, through his intercession, we too may be moved and strengthen by the same Spir

  • Inherently, I don't think so, but I think for a traditional Catholic who is wise to the errors of America, it easily could be for no other reason than it might be a lie.
    "Be kind; do not seek the malicious satisfaction of having discovered an additional enemy to the Church... And, above all, be scrupulously truthful. To all, friends and foes alike, give that serious attention which does not misrepresent any opinion, does not distort any statement, does not mutilate any quotation. We need not fear to serve the cause of Christ less efficiently by putting on His spirit". (Vermeersch, 1913).

  • Yes, Mithy. Some of us realize the errors have spread and give no acknowledgement to this government.
