The author of Genesis, whoever he was, claims that  God made Man in his image. However, on the few rare occasions in which God appears to someone in the Bible, his human features are never mentioned. In his most famous appearance to Moses, he appears as burning shrubbery.   On rare occasions, we do have divine appearances, but God the Father is never one of them. The most usual divine appearances in order of frequency are God's main and only squeeze, the Virgin Mary, followed by Jesus and the angels, Gabriel and Michael.


King George III, like all British monarchs, claimed that he was King of the British Empire by the Grace of God, and hd is stamped on the money in what he considered God's favorite language, Latin Dei Gratia Rex. Nowadays this is abbreviated to DGR for Dei Gratia Regina, because the monarch is a queen.

We also insist on mentioning God by stamping In God We Trust on our money, and for some weird reason, insist on mentioning that God Is Up There in the Pledge of Allegiance, which we even more weirdly insist on reciting at athletic events and even stock car races with the words Under God.

As if we could assure that God is about bu mentioning him.

God either does not like to visit Earth, or only does so when he chooses to be invisible, mute, intangible, odorless and without taste. He values imperceptability, which some claim is necessary so that we can have free will.

Blood sacrifice is not required for avocados to grow. If you want a tree ripened avocado, you must refrain from plucking it before it is ripe, and you must also defend it from birds, bugs and small creatures that also enjoy eating avocados.

By the way, the original English word for avocado was alligator pear. But that sounded unappetizing, so the California Alligator Pear Association chose the name AVOCADO.  In Mexico, the word is aguacate, which English speakers thought should rhyme with wawabait.  Aguacates have a bumpy greenish skin, like what we call Hess Avocados. The larger black and green smooth skin fruit are known as Pahuas (PAH waz).

Correction: the Founding Fathers, at least some of them, decided that God granted rights.
That's what I just said, twerp.

Correction: repeating my thesis doesn't correct it.

I do not think that American jurisprudence can cause an omnipotent deity to come into being.
There either is a God, or there is not, and  we merely think there is one. It is convenient for the public to believe in a Higher Being that will strike them dead if they lie.

I haven't read through this entire thread but I did read this post which is articulate and possibly true to a certain extent. But I respect all who don't have any faith or who follow a faith different than mine. I'm not arrogant enough to proclaim that I am right and whoever doesn't believe as I do will burn in hell for all eternity.  All I know is that as a Catholic I obey the sacraments and I let the rest take care of itself. Amen.

The number of rights God grants human beings, times the number of human beings. 

That^, my argument reasoned, is the number of rights on the planet at any moment in time. The only way to give corporations rights, therefore, is to first take those rights from humans. 

I stand by that argument. Most of the board's rat wingers argued against me. Not gonna name any names, because I don't know @Huey's  name. The arguments he made against me were just EMBARRASING. Lucky for him, they are gone with the wind. Image

Clem, of course, likewise pandered for wall street.

Rights must be finite, since it takes energy and focus to provide and protect them.  If everyone is hellbent on defending the rights of corporations, human rights will decrease sharply

every state constitution mandates that to run for governor, one must declare his belief in God.

Are you sure of that? I find that unlikely.
But I am far too lazy to pore through 50 state Constitutions. Are you?\
I thought so.
This sounds like something you heard in a sermon.
