You said— “...you sort of misquote someone else’s Book.”

Just curious. What would have been the correct quote, and what Book is it from? Thanks.

There are too many pseudo-conservatives and secularists attacking Christianity in this thread. The much-abused author of the article said nothing that is not firmly enshrined in the Bible.

If America dumps Christianity, vapid and soul-killing socialism will fill the void. Faith in Christ is central to the strength of our civilization, the health of our marriages, the destiny of our nation. If we smoke, drink and abort our way into a libertarian stupor, we become another enfeebled population-shrinking Europe, overrun by Muslim immigrants and sharia law and too weak to resist the crushing burden of big government.

"Behold! The Guardian of Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps." It's from Psalms. We are talking Hebrew here so other translations and word orders are possible. (I put Guardian of Israel before the verbs, but that phrase comes at the end of the verse.) But your putting sleep before slumber struck me as rather weird. I don't think I've ever heard it that way.
