Perhaps the most symbolic national monument in America is the Statue of Liberty. We could have erected a giant Christus (Like the one in Rio) to greet people arriving on our shores, or a statue of Moses holding the ten commandments. Instead we have Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom, holding the Declaration of Independence, with a broken chain at her feet, symbolizing freedom.
The statue of liberty is only one example, and we can blame that on the French. But our center of Goverment in DC is also covered in Greek and Roman pagan symbols, as is our currency. How can a nation founded on Judeo-Christianity have so little Judeo-Christian influence on its goverment and allow for so many pagan monuments?
Why this?
Instead of this?
