Again, it has nothing to do with people today who want the US govt to endorse a Christian god, except to explain why the govt is barred from doing what those people want it to.

Anyway, getting back to this original question, I would guess that Monroe's Blutbad bible contains the same or similar passage, except that its illustrations all depict God as a Blutbad.
I myself, as a Roman Catholic would never push for any government to endorse any one specific religion. Because I know, if a majority of some other religion came in power, they could change it to their liking. Thats what the Constitution was written to protect. The claim you are making is from a few fringe Christians , no where close to any considerable amount to even be crucial.
The point I was trying to make is, Again. this government was founded on a principle of "Freedom of Religion", not "Freedom "FROM" Religion"! which also includes the freedom to be an atheist.
Just like a religion can not be imposed on an atheist, an atheist can not impose their demands on how we should practice our beliefs . The reason why some are getting away from doing so, including on public and government facilities is due to the courts being allowed to legislate instead of the legislative branch of the government doing their job.
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
