Patriot Pepsi? Or Athiest Drink?

Heya all...i received an e-mail saying that -

Pepsi has come out with this new can that has the "pledge of Allegiance"...but leaves out the most important part: "Under God"

Pepsi responded to the critics by saying they did not want to offend anyone.

Well, we surely do not want to offend Pepsi by giving them bills that say "In GOD we trust" on them....so boycott the product for the sake of Truth.

and by the way, Coca-Cola refuses to take responsibility for the murder of employees of its factory in Colombia (my country) who formed a workers union for the improvement of working conditions and the fairness to employees. The paramilitary murdered the leaders of the Union who were putting pressure on the company and they refuse to invest in protection for other upcoming union leaders...so out of fear no one will take a stand...sounds fishy does it not?

Well there are thousands running a campaign to boycott the Coca-Cola products. Many are Catholic crusaders who will not be silenced. It might be a good time to start driniking healthy stuff!!!!

Blessed be Jesus Christ! the tomb is empty...let us walk out into the world with Him in the power and Love of the Father and the Holy Spirit!

Well, I'm sure glad we don't have to boycott Pepsi. I don't mind boycotting Coca-Cola, though, since it is an inferior product, after all.

Besides the fact that this(pepsi) is an urban legend, since when do we expect unregenerate(unsaved, non-christian) people to act like Christians?

Who said we expected them to act like Christians? Nobody is saying they have to go to prayer meetings and read their Bibles. But it is not unreasonable to demand that even unbelievers refrain from murdering union leaders.

I was referring to Pepsi. Not Coke.
