著名布道家葛培理的儿子和接班人葛福临（Franklin Graham）牧师，8月20日在他的脸书facebook上写道（链接https://www.facebook.com/FranklinGraham）：
我在电视上看了本周民主党的全国大会，我注意到上帝从他们的话语中消失。我决不相信，从政府和民众的生活铲除上帝后，美国还有美好的明天。按照上帝设立的标准生活，我们才能长治久安。
是上帝说的：“不可杀人。”
是上帝说的：“不可偷窃。”
是上帝说的：“不可奸淫。”
是上帝说的：“当孝敬父母”
是上帝说的：“当纪念安息日，守为圣日。”
是上帝说的：“不可作假见证，陷害你的邻居。”
是上帝说的：“不可枉称（滥用）上帝的名，枉称我名的，我必定罪。”
是上帝说的：“不可贪恋你邻舍的房子。不可贪恋你邻舍的妻子、仆婢，牲口或一切东西。”
是上帝说的：“除我以外，你不可有其他神。”
是上帝说的：“不可为自己雕刻偶像，也不可做什么形像彷佛上天、下地，和地底下、水中的百物。不可跪拜那些像，也不可事奉他，因为我耶和华你的神是忌邪的神。恨我的，我必追讨他的罪，自父及子，直到三四代；爱我、守我诫命的，我必向他们发慈爱，直到千代。”
上帝创造了我们，创造了我们赖以生存的地球。我们以为自己是谁？竟敢抛开上帝另立法则？我们以为自己是谁，竟敢将上帝逐出？正如（著名黑人牧师）托尼·埃文斯（TonyEvans）博士所说：“当一个曾经敬拜上帝的国家，抛弃上帝时，恶果将至。” 对个人、对国家，都是如此。
In
watching some of the Democratic National Convention on television this
week, it has been interesting to see the absence of God. I don’t believe
America’s finest hours will be in front of us if we take God out of
government and public life. It is God who set the standards we are to
live by.It is God who said, “You shall not murder.”It is God who said, “You shall not steal.”It is God who said, “You shall not commit adultery.”It is God who said, “Honor your father and your mother”It is God who said, “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.”It is God who said, “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.”It
is God who said, “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in
vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in
vain.”It
is God who said, “You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall
not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female
servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your
neighbor’s.”It is God who said, “You shall have no other gods before Me.”It
is God who said, “You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any
likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth
beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bowdown
to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous
God,visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third
and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to
thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.”God
created us and this earth we live on. Who do we think we are to try to
rewrite the rules and run things apart from Him? Who do we think we are
to try to take Him out of everything? As Dr. Tony Evans said, “When One
Nation Under God becomes One Nation Apart from God, expect the
consequences.” That’s true in our individual lives and for our nation.
北美动态记者狄铂娜评论：
近些年，民主党一方面有意识地从公共平台除去基督耶稣及其对美国的影响，倡导上帝恨恶的罪行（如践踏法律、鼓励打砸抢、鼓励变性和淫乱等），一方面积极地引进其它宗教和神明，尤其是穆教。
在奥巴马掌政期间，为了讨好在白宫工作的穆斯林，他命令每天的五次伊斯兰祈祷时段，必须保持静黙。奥巴马还在白宫的多处铺上祈祷地毯和新月标志，把白宫布置成穆斯林的场所（参1）。
川普就任总统后，马上除去白宫里穆斯林的标志，并且重申美国是由基督徒建立的，是建立在基督教道德的基础上的。所有的异教标识，除非具有历史意义，必须从政府建筑物中除去。
而民主党总统候选人拜登，上个月在穆斯林选民峰会上说：“我希望我们在（美国的公立）学校里教导更多有关伊斯兰信仰的内容”（参2）。
美国境内目前已经有九百万穆斯林，穆斯林生育率高。纵观历史，横看世界，穆斯林人口增长到一定的比例，他们就会强迫所居的社会实行穆斯林法，社会就彻底穆斯林化了。请关注一下世界各地穆斯林的恐怖破坏活动，你希望美国变成穆斯林主导国吗？你觉得奥巴马、拜登和民主党爱美国吗？
