    Why would any president of the USA omit saying the word god while reciting the gettysburg address.?

    The only reason I could think is that he is muslim and does not want to offend his muslin followers. Well it offends me that he didn't say it.

      Many agree that your reason is the reason he would omit using the word God even though he claims to be a Christian.

          digger, yes, but they don't call him " God" They address him as Allah.

          It wouldn't be the Gettysburg address if he didn't recite it verbatim, at least, not in my opinion. And if he was reciting the Gettysburg address he would be doing it for reasons other than religious ones. Besides, not every citizen is a believer and contrary to what some think this does not make them bad or even wrong. And to throw accusations around that someone must be a Muslim because they don't include God in every speech is not only ridiculous, but irresponsible.
