Imagine the look on UR's face when he finds out Christians aren't the only group that worships that same God as Muslims and Jews also trust in God
And what do you think would happen if "In Allah we trust" was put on cop cars and fire trucks?
Would be 12 hours before someone set fire to one.
Allah is just a generic Arabic word meaning god used by every Arabic person regardless of which faith they follow. Americans generally speak English, so God is the correct word to use here. Jews call God "Adonai" or "Elohim" in the Hebrew language, but you don't usually hear them say it or see them write it when speaking of God in English.
You intentionally just dodged my point.
If "In Allah we trust" was proposed to be put on police cars, no one would go "Well Allah just means God" people (and mainly the same people who want In "God We trust" put on) would be livid.
You're being intellectually dishonest when you pretend otherwise. Vocal Christians in America are not okay with spreading the Islamic faith, let alone the government spreading Islamic faith.
This evidenced everytime schools do work or homework that involves reading te Qu'ran and people flip out
To be fair, I'm sure there would be at least a few people who would understand that and go "Well Allah just means God," but your point still stands that it would likely be vandalized pretty quickly.
Being a police vehicle, though, I'd imagine most people who would have a problem with it would just lose their shit without vandalizing it, but you never really know. ---
