This song is not a recent release but the reason I am sharing it was because of the controversy that I have heard that surrounds it. In God We Still Trust by Diamond Rio was apparently boycotted and not played by MANY radio stations in America because it was considered politically incorrect. Really? What has happened to America? Where are the conservative Christians out there and why are we silent? It is time to wake-up and more importantly SPEAK up! Since when does a Christian based song offend because we are talking about God being in America?
This was shocking to me as I hear of rap-stars singing lyrics that are offensive to groups of people - directly degrading them, yet that is considered music and permissible. There have been artists whose art defames Christianity yet it is covered under freedom of expression. They have the right to degrade Christian images under the rights of freedom yet radio stations are not playing music because there may be a back-lash. Am I the only one to see something wrong with this picture? This is troubling in the least as this song should be played as any other song is played on the radio. I am proud of my God and am not going to shrink back because some people may be afraid to offend a few listeners over this song. This is ridiculous.
