Another America, another NASA:

LISTEN:

1968: Apollo 8: Christmas at the Moon

"Christmas Eve, 1968. As one of the most turbulent, tragic years in American history drew to a close, millions around the world were watching and listening as the Apollo 8 astronauts - Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders - became the first humans to orbit another world.

As their command module floated above the lunar surface, the astronauts beamed back images of the moon and Earth and took turns reading from the book of Genesis, closing with a wish for everyone "on the good Earth."

This is racist. Jesus is a common Hispanic name.

Patriots, beware of double standards, such standards condemned by the Holy Bible ! (eg. Deuteronomy 25:13)

Since Christian businesss have the constitutional protection to not have their business name associated with LGBT issues, both state and federal governments wrongly ignoring this protection imo, then although NASA does not necessarily have the same constitutional protection, NASAs concern about Christian messages should likewise be taken into consideration imo.

In fact, if TV broadcasters can show warnings similar to, ”the following information does not necessarily reflect the beliefs of this broadcaster,” then NASA can appropriately require Christians to include a similar disclaimer for Christian issues on its newsletter.

Insights welcome.

Thank you, I was only 5 so I do not recall much. However, it made my screen blurry when they were reading The Book of Genesis. Obviously, can’t do that no more.

Hey NASA!

Psalm 19:1

“The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.”

This isn’t your parents, or my NASA of old. It is run by a former astronaut turned hack political appointee and Moslem asskissing stooge of the closet Marxist/moslem in the Red House.

Need I say more?

This is one more example of the incompetence of the Obama Regime. To resort to the PC book of rules instead of common sense shows Zer0 control of the situation.

"NASA" bans the word "Jesus"

I wonder if this includes expletives people so freely throw about?
