God and Kentucky’s Security

Kentucky’s Department of Homeland Security depends primarily on the protection of the Almighty God.

Specifically, Homeland Security is ordered to publicize God’s benevolent protection in its reports, and it must post a plaque at the entrance to the state Emergency Operations Center with an 88-word statement that begins, “The safety and security of the Commonwealth cannot be achieved apart from reliance upon Almighty God.”

I believe Rep. Tom Riner may have crossed the line and used the state to promote religion, as he said “Government itself, apart from God, cannot close the security gap. The job is too big for government.”

Maybe so, but is this about preaching or addressing threats to the citizens of Kentucky?
