How so? By claiming a belief in God, it stands against the various forms of secular and humanistic thoughts that dominate in the West. It also opposes those forms of Buddism that are atheistic. Belief in God the Father means a repudiation of Judaism and Islam, which deny that God can beget a child. Calling him Maker of heaven and earth is a contradiction of Hinduism and other polytheistic religions, all of which hold that the universe is either eternal or formed from preexisting matter.
That may seem to be a lot to get out of one line, but it's there.
