Who created GOD, or where did GOD come from

Who's removing God from school? The school simply cannot promote or preach God, per the constitution.

The history teachers are unable to talk about the religious revivals that affected the establishment of our Constitution. They cannot present how Christian revival affected the change toward slavery across both the UK and moved on to the US. The history teachers cannot present how religious considerations caused evangelicals to fight against the atheism of various communist nations. The science departments in public schools are unable to fully reveal or explore the good qualities surrounding creationism, nor encourage their students to do any reports on creationism nor creationists...

There is no 'proof' any God(s) have ever been created. There is, however, a plethora of evidence mere mortals created 'God concepts'. ( not to be confused with actual God(s) )

Any of those God's get humiliated, and crucifide and we set our history when around they were born?

You might set your history around it, billions don't, they have their own beliefs, then there are some who think religion and gods are made up entities
to explain what early man didn't understand.

Have you ever expressed YOUR own ideas regarding Evolution, or how life originated, and the Big Bag Theory. I'd love to hear you chatter on and on that subject. You seem to get annoyed when Christians post anything that may assist in any discussion you don't agree with, but I highly doubt that you'd be so willing to present the topic of evolution, etc., in your own words. No one is suggesting you need to sit through anything for an hour at a time. You may always come back to a video and resume where you left off. One can presume that you don't tell a science instructor what to do and that he maybe wasting your precious time........ Get over yourself.

Let me see if I have this right, you post your beliefs on a debate forum, then get upset when someone opposes your views? If your beliefs are that fragile
maybe you shouldn't put them on a public debate forum.

The constitution is not based on religion. The Founding Father's were also very clear on that. Religion was one of the justifications used for slavery too. Communism is not equivalent to atheism nor is it a religion itself. It's a political ideology independent of religion. Creationism is not science and does not belong in a science classroom. Perhaps you should learn actual history and science rather than Christian revisionist nonsense.

Well, they probably listened to them a bit when like all other bands of that era, the Stones went psychedelic.

I wouldn't say the Stones were ever psychedelic, but that's really just musician semantics and I agree with your point. There was definitely a shift in music with the Stones, much like the Beatles.

Of course the constitution was based on Christianity to say otherwise is being dishonest.

Name them

Demeter, Dionysus, Sabazios, Tiamat, Odin, Osiris-Horus, Balder, Queztalcoatl, Tammuz and Adonis.

All dying/sacrificed gods, and all with major calendrical functions. Just off the top of my head.
 
...in fact, Jesus refers to himself in Dionysian terms, which makes sense for a Greek and Aramaic speaker from the Decapolis region.

Demonstrably false!

"It will never be pretended that any persons employed in that service had any interviews with the gods, or were in any degree under the inspiration of heaven, any more than those at work upon ships or houses, or labouring in merchandize or agriculture: it will for ever be acknowledged that these governments were contrived merely by the use of reason and the senses."
---John Adams, A Defense of the Constitutions of the Government of the United States of America (1787)

"IGWT" did not exist until the 1860's, and not formally adopted as a motto until the 1950's. There is not verifiable instance of it ever being said by the Founding Fathers either.

What do holidays have to do with the Constitution? Xmas didn't become a national holiday until 1870. Care to try and fail again?

For centuries, human history was centered around the date of the Founding of Rome.

Does that mean the Demigods Romulus and Remus were real, along with the god Mars?

AhHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhh! When is THE WIND, GRAVITY, and MAGNATISM ------- a religious belief? Am I on the wrong planet ----- or has modern education really destroyed the minds of everyone under 40.

Wind, gravity, and magnetism can all be measured and empirically verified.

Where is similar verification for your god?
