ozboy, you wrote, in part: >>> ... God missing from EU constitution ... Officials in Brussels have omitted the word God from the European Union's future constitution. ... But none of the chapters mentions any deity, or any explicitly religious or Christian values supposed to underpin the European project. <<<
..... In Europe there are very many non-Christians, even many who don't have any connection with God, possibly don't think that God exists (for them). God has been "disconnected" in many countries, and very many whose religions officially include a "belief" in God do not, most of (or even all) the time, obey God's requirements.
