LGBTQ Congressman Elect to take his oath on a Comic Book

Democratic congressman will swear oath on a comic book instead of Bible

California’s Robert Garcia announced that he plans to place his hand on a collection of documents, including a classic Superman comic and a copy of his citizenship certificate.

Of course, he's a Democrat. And from California. And he's a naturalized citizen immigrating from Peru. And he's got a grudge as the openly gay Representative-elect. He used to be a Republican and then switched to Democrat. He fell for the Obama line.

Garcia: “My love of comics influenced me growing up." We can tell.

Read about the comic book congressman elect

Our nation's history provides overwhelming evidence that America was birthed upon Judeo-Christian principles. The first act of America's first Congress in 1774 was to ask a minister to open with prayer and to lead Congress in the reading of four chapters of the Bible.

In 1776, in approving the Declaration of Independence, our founders acknowledged that all men "are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights..." and noted that they were relying "on the protection of Divine Providence" in the founding of this country. John Quincy Adams said, "The Declaration of Independence laid the cornerstone of human government upon the first precepts of Christianity."

Also, the signers of the 1783 Treaty of Paris, which ended the Revolutionary War, insisted the treaty begin with the phrase, "In the name of the most holy and undivided Trinity." [usnews.com]

Athiests and Anarchists - So Help Me God

Now it's the military taking out the word "God" that has been in their oath since 1776 because some kid objected to it.

Judicial Watch Sues DOD for Records about Removal of “So Help Me God” from Air Force Academy Written Materials

Back in July, Judicial Watch told you about a new wave of attacks against religious freedom inside the United States Military. Read what they say below:

There’s the Air Force officer who was forced to remove a Bible from his desk because it might offend someone. There’s the military chaplain who was instructed to resign his commission if he refused to “get on board” with the abolition of the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy. There’s the 20-year-old ethics course that was eliminated in July 2011 because it referenced scripture.  And there’s the painting containing a verse from scripture that was removed from the Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho following a complaint by an anti-Christian “religious freedom” group.

And now, the United States Air Force (USAF) Academy has removed the words “So help me God” from some written materials, including the oath administered to USAF inductees based upon the objections of a single atheist.

Judicial Watch initiated an investigation into this troubling decision. And on September 12, 2013, we filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Defense to get our hands on records that could shed light on how and why this move was made.
