13. I'm atheist, so cannot answer the above, but
I do know why I sold 'my soul' to corporate America.

Corporate America employs people, CA produces the defense materiel that protects this nation, CA is the market that buys what we produce on this farm (yes, I live on a farm), CA and some others produce the auto that I drive, the power that lights and heats my home, and CA also develops the modern medical techniques that may extend my quality of life.

A second reason for voting the way I did was to support a president who realizes that the UN is nothing but an ineffectual 'feel good' global club for dictators, thugs, and thieves.

And my third and most pressing concern was the fight against terrorism and who my 'gut' said would be more dedicated to that fight without groveling to those that are friends of the dictators, thugs, and thieves.

So there you have this atheist's perspective; and no, I am not offended when he, or anyone else, says "God Bless America".
