Thank WHO (Official Thanksgiving Proclamations), Part 9 |
I will be going through official thanksgiving proclamations, through
out the month of November. After all, if they start Halloween shows
and events in September, it must be time to start Thanking God.
(From my own book, A Nation Under God)...
Iowa - 29th state
State Motto: "Our Liberties We Prize and Our Rights We Will
Maintain"
Thanksgiving Proclamation - 1864
"WHEREAS, It has pleased Almighty God to vouchsafe unto us as a Nation
and People manifold blessings throughout another year, and a day for
NATIONAL THANKSGIVING has been designated by the President of the
United States, and WHEREAS, The State of Iowa has shared the full
degree of Divine favor in this, that there is peace and plenty within
her borders, her people healthful and prosperous, and their devotion
to Liberty and the Union unalterable--
"THEREFORE, I. William M. Stone, Governor of the State of Iowa, in
pursuance of a time honored custom, do, by this my Proclamation, make
known that THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 24TH, 1864, the day set apart by the
President for grateful acknowledgment of God's favor, will be observed
in this State, and the voice of Iowa will unite with the voice of her
Sister States in giving thanks to the Lord for his merciful kindness.
And all her citizens who recognize the favor of God in the blessings
we enjoy, are requested to suspend all secular employment, and in
family re-unions, social gatherings, and their accustomed places of
public worship give thanks for his bountiful providence.
"Thanks for the preservation of our free institutions.
"Thanks that our national perils by recent events are greatly
lessened, and that our people, animated by the spirit of their
fathers, have resolved to maintain Liberty and Union unimpaired.
Thanks for His merciful preservation of the Ship of State amid the
storm of civil strife, and invocation for its guidance into the calm
waters of universal Freedom and perpetual Union. Thanks for the
numerous victories so gloriously won on Land and Sea, in the cause of
freedom and humanity.
"And let us devoutly pray that the God of battles will guide the
heroic defenders of our Flag, and in His holy keeping shield them from
danger; nor forget that their wives and little ones merit our
gratitude and protection. Let us pray that continued victories may
crown the efforts of our armies until treason and rebellion be
crushed, and that in His own good time He will vouchsafe an honorable
and permanent Peace to our Land. May our patriot soldiers sleeping in
their honored graves, be remembered with the silent tear, and
heartfelt prayer ascend that our patriotism be purified by their
blood, and that their widows and orphans may receive Divine
consolation and protection.
"In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused to be
affixed the Great Seal of the State of Iowa. Done at Des Moines, this
11th day of November, A. D., 1864."

In 1977, the last case of smallpox was reported in Somalia. For the
first time, a major disease has been completely vanquished. Dr H.
Mahler, WHO director-general, described the smallpox program as "a
triumph of management, not of medicine." It is said that at a meeting
in Kenya in 1978 the then director-general, on announcing the end of
smallpox, had turned to Donald Henderson who had directed the smallpox
program, and asked him which was the next disease to be eradicated.
Henderson reached for the microphone and said that the next disease
that needs to be eradicated is bad management (Hopkins 1989).
FNC, thanks again

But not, I must point out, for having rid us of smallpox.
(it was humans that did that)

Really? I had not known that.
Which God does this multi-cultural organization recognize?
YHWH? Krishna? Susano no mikoto?
Oh: Ganesh, most surely?

WHO cares? A god recognised or unrecognised by the UN didn't get rid
of smallpox, the WHO got rid of smallpox, and quite frankly I'm
exceptionally disappointed by those who can't take the time out of
their day to recognize that fact.
FNC, and we should also be thankful for escapist entertainment, right?

So, you don't object to the UN officially recognizing God...only the
US? Let me guess, you don't have a problem with Islamic countries
officially recognizing God, either.

Well, you've guessed about everything else, and been just as
successful as your usual.
Here, I'll do a kittraell, please demonstrate from anything I have
posted here what my religious beliefs are, let alone my opinion on
foreign countries' internal policies:
FNC, oh, and cite for that other as well

You haven't actually demonstrated that it does. Furthermore, you have
yet to identify which God it recognizes.

She lives in Canada, idiot.

They wouldn't be "Islamic countries" if they didn't officially
recognize Allah. They would just be "countries".

Shall we interpret this to mean that you cannot provide a cite for
your assertion that "the UN officially recognizes God"?
