Amen and Awomen?!

They took 'amen' and also amended 'awomen', fully knowing that 'amen' has nothing to do with men or women as it's not even an English word. It strikes me as pathological and absurd, taking something like this and making a political issue of the word 'amen' just to make some kind of point. So yes, it is bizarre and I think these people need to seriously calm down.
I really can only hope he was joking and doesn't seriously believe "amen" is referring to men. :facepalm:

Why did you choose to open the thread with an outright lie? Isn't baring false witness a sin?
I believe his point is that this is where things are headed. Not where they currently are ... he's just giving this as an example of how far the left is going down the political correctness hole. He is making the point that eventually they might try to kill people who disagree with their politically correct version of prayer.

Soon, the federal government will re-write prayers
to be acceptable to all religions & even strong atheists.

If that was the case it was a terribly made point. I don't see such exaggerated rhetoric alone as a good way to open a debate.

It would also be an absolutely ridiculous point. It isn't "the left" who are attacking and condemning this individual for choosing to say the prayer in a different (albeit foolish IMO) way.

Saying "it's time to say a very good bye" treats "good" as an adjective for some countable "bye," even though "goodbye" is one word (derived from "God be with ye," if I'm not mistaken). So unlike "a good night," "goodbye" is perpetually a single word, hence the ignorance in splitting it into an adjective and a countable noun as in the example given.

I hope this helps!
Dat de point.

The government is dictating you on how to pray. Will you follow Absolute Truth even under fear of the death penalty?


How do people keep having a high IQ scores, if they say such prayers?

The brain damaged politician that said Awomn is an Aidiot (see how ridiculous that sounds?) I swear some people will go so far for what they think is equality that they truly become idiots
