New Zealand: First They Took Their Guns.....Now They're Removing Jesus From Their Lives

[pismoe]

The OP is the fake news spread on Twitter. The references to Jesus and the Queen were removed from the parliamentary prayer in 2017, not in response to the Christchurch attack.

Almighty God,

Humbly acknowledging our need for Thy guidance in all things, and laying aside all private and personal interests, we beseech Thee to grant that we may conduct the affairs of this House and of our country to the glory of Thy holy name, the maintenance of true religion and justice, the honour of the Queen, and the public welfare, peace, and tranquillity of New Zealand, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

No, New Zealand did not remove references to Jesus from its parliamentary prayer in response to the Christchurch mosque shootings

-------------------------------- i argue nothing about the reason for the removal of the name Jesus . 'mosque' shooting , who cares ?? All i comment on is that the name of Jesus was removed from the Parliamentary Prayer at some time fairly recently TTerm .

'almighty god' is NOT Jesus and it was the name of Jesus that was removed Gentlemen .

There are Christian public displays, references and practices all the time.
In fact, there are several national holidays in the name of Jesus...one of them is even named after his surname.
Where's the discrimination again?

Jesus doesn't have a surname. Christ is not a name at all, but an epithet, a descriptive title. It means, "Anointed one".
