In your #23, you say we are not a Christian nation and in your #30 you say we are a predominantly Christian nation.
You don’t see the contradiction?
Absolutely not. Perhaps it’s a mater of definition, but to use the example: Malaysia is a Muslim nation, where Islam is enshrined as the national religion. Israel is the Jewish state. To me a nation is one that is governed by the precepts of the designated religion (which we generally are) to the exclusion of any other. Any any non-member of the prevailing religion is less a citizen and discriminated against. The ultimate arbiter of right and wrong is the clergy. Turkey, for example, is very specifically a secular nation, hence the occasional battles on head scarves in schools. Its army on several occasions has coupe’d to prevent the clergy from taking over the country. It is, however a nation generally populated by Muslims.
