The US invented AIDS to kill the black man ?? The US brings in drugs to the inner city to destroy the black man

You don't think these are outrageous ?

I think when the guy said, "we won't sing God Bless America. I say God Damn America," it would have been a good time for Obama to distance himself. I think that is totally a minister's job to oppose the establishment and put them on notice when they aren't doing right. But a Presidential candidate can't go there.

I do feel queasy when I see American flags in churches. The followers of Jesus are supposed to be citizens of The Kingdom of God, not of any nation. And the flag is an idol that is worshipped, no matter how you slice it. Just as The Pledge of Allegiance is a prayer to that idol. But, again, it would not be wise of a candidate to espouse those facts in public.
