Empty words?

It's hard to ignore the irony regarding a couple of recent news items. On one hand, there is the story "House Administration Committee unanimously approves engraving National Motto 'In God We Trust' inside new Capitol Visitor Center" while on the other hand we read: "House approves funding bill allowing Obama to promote abortion internationally". While the first story is welcome news, the other story apparently displays their lack of trust in God (Where do they think these aborted children come from? How can one claim have faith - "trust" - in God but dishonor His commandments?). Let us hope this engraving will not be mere empty words. Obviously it is great to engrave them on the walls, but it will be of no avail if they are not engraved upon hearts. [6/11]
