Why would God bless America when America kicked God out?

Why would God bless America when America kicked God out? I've wondered this for quite a while now. Plus I've also noticed how here in America we have "coolness" national pride. That is we only love the country when it makes us either look better, or because something happens and eveyone else does it for a week or two. The same is true for how a month after Sept. 11 church attendence was way up, but then fell back to normal numbers again. Now you can't go anywhere in America without seeing shirts and shoes and other crap that says I support America, or America rules! What total crap! Now companies want to cash in on the American name and patriotisim. Americans are stupid and quickly follow the band wagon. We can't do anything for ourselves and are reduced to playing catch up. By the way I'm in no way against America, but rather the way it's run and stupid people that would rather be loved and be themselves. I'm born and razed in the good ole' southern state of South Carolina and still feel a lack of patriotisim.

Patriotism is not a fucklng bumber sticker. It is joining the army, or standing up for the american way. Even though American has its shortcomings, would you really want to live in another country for a period of time longer than a vaction? Also, American did not push god out, America simply seperated Church and State.

Exactly. Yet I feel that many companies are trying to make money off of Sept. 11.
