Kliphnote: Why do the atheist fanatics worry about this?
The First Amendment reads:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;........
It's freedom OF religion, NOT FROM religion. Go back to worshiping Obama
and Marx (that's Karl not Groucho. Happy now Jane Fonda?) and Castro.
As soon as they start their own interpretation of the First Amendment,
they will do the same to the Second Amendment, than the rest of the
Bill of Rights.GOP lawmakers protest removal of 'God' from Air Force unit's patch

A group of Republican lawmakers is protesting the removal a reference to God in the patch logo for the Air
Force Rapid Capabilities Office (RCO).
The 35 lawmakers, led by Rep. Randy Forbes (R-Va.), wrote a
letter to Air Force Secretary Michael Donley and Chief of Staff Gen. Norton
Schwartz urging them to restore the logo with a reference to God.
Forbes warned that the action taken by the RCO could set a
“dangerous precedent” when it comes to religion and the military.
"The action taken by the RCO suggests that all
references to God, regardless of their context, must be removed from the
military,” Forbes wrote. “As we are confident that your legal advisors would
not suggest that censorship is required for compliance with the First
Amendment, we ask that you reverse this perplexing decision.”
The patch logo was changed after a military atheist group,
the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers, protested the reference
to God on the patch. The patch has a saying on it in Latin, which is common for
military patches, that tranlates to: “Doing God’s Work with Other People’s
Money.”
The saying was then changed last month to say: “Doing
Miracles with Other People’s Money.”
