You obviously do not understand the meaning of the expression "God fearing". This does not refer to the kind of trembling, gibbering, crouching fear that is thought of when we see a horror movie or when we experience some dreadful ugly accident or event. In the context in which it is used, "God fearing" refers to reverence and respect. Whether or not you believe in God is a matter of faith and choice. Truth does not require belief, it just is. I have not touched an electron lately, but I know they exist. I have experienced the power of prayer personally and know that it exists although I don't think you can touch it or hear it taste it. I'm sorry that your life is bereft of the comfort of knowledge that there is a higher power.

The Old Testament motivated behaviour based on fear of punishment for our Sins. Jesus took the punishment for our Sins, so our motivation for our behavior now is Love, not Fear.

God fearing refers to reverence and respect? Back when diseases and acts of nature were attributed to it, people didn't fear it, they only revered and respected it?

Who tells you these things and why do you believe them?

The most important event at either national convention was the "vote" taken by the Democratic delegates on a last-minute resolution to reinsert the words "God" and "Jerusalem" into the Democratic Party platform.

Regarding God, since Karl Marx, the aim of the left, everywhere on Earth, has been a godless society. And the Democratic Party has evolved over the last half century from a liberal party into a leftist one -- so much so that it is now indistinguishable from any of the leftist parties in Western Europe.

Yes, Franklin D. Roosevelt was a left-wing president -- as concerned...
