This is real dangerous talk.

The united states has always been one nation with generous individual liberties to enable all people to live their life according to their wishes.

This freedom and the unity it forged within our people has turned the US into the greatest nation in the world.

Our forefathers and successive generations since, toiled for years make this nation great.

No idiot, or a group idiots has the right to undo centuries of work to make great nation, with stupid secession talk.

What are we going to have next?, a separate nation for gays adn lesbians?

I am a great proponent of christianity myself.

It's just that i haven't come across such a dumb bunch who want to do such irreparable damage to both the US and christianity, with the best of intentions.

These morons are worse than a herd of sheep, they're a herd of jackasses.

America needs christian morals to guide it's youth.

Similarly christianity needs the might and the world role of the US to serve the christian world.

The US is a christian majority nation. There is no need for christian to secede when they make the majority here. Anyone who isn't happy living with christians around them should move elsewhere.

Christians don't need to move elsewhere.

Human being have progressed light years since the biblical times. now this progress has to be incorporated into christian living and the christian mind as well.

I am very much in support of the christian faith and christian political power.

But it has to be progressive christianity, we don't have to undo milleniums of human development by going back into the stone ages.

i mean if they want to make a difference, why not move to states with a slight liberal majority, so they can tip the balance in favor of a conservative govt there.

These dumb misguided christians intend doing the greatest injustice to christians by locking them in a corner, when the entire US is christian majority country.

Ridiculous. We are called to change the world, not run away from the people for whom He died. Be salt--not salt that has lost its flavor.

Christians don't need to move anyplace, they're best served in the US.

This was disinformation from the start.
It began the same day as the "Indian outsourcing for the Bush campaign" started.

The democrat party has been attempting to undo centuries of work in this great nation already.

Hurrah to these Christians for bringing to light what this country needs: The government TAKEN BACK by WE THE PEOPLE!

BTW, some States kept their right to secession when the union was formed. This is not un-american at all. We need to take the country back to it's Christian Roots, this is a good way to get that talk going!

It's been done. There have been many separatist, 'utopian' communities in American history, especially in the 19th Century. The hard rule is they last until the backbiting gets unbearably vicious or the kids grow up enough to move away.

It's not dangerous talk. It's no different that what the founders did when they found themselves under the thumb of a government they abhorred. If you don't like it, don't join. America has changed.

I agree with many points you raise, but I will not condemn anyone who feels they are under assault without justification when they consider action. Christians do feel under assault. Unchristian values are taught in school with their tax dollars. They can not even isolate themselves from the assault in peaceful communities without running in to lawsuits over fair housing or unfair labor practices that promote immoral behavior.

If you are upset and do not want to loose the Christian influence in your state fight for their rights in each state. If the problem is tamed they the call will not be heeded. Stop blaming the victim.

Either go to a place where you are accepted and can live happily. Or your choice is to stay and preach to the deaf.

Exactly! Even if the people weren't deaf, the judges have taken control. We can persuade all we want. We can maintain majorities. It doesn't matter. The judges rule.

There has been some near to serious talk of FReepers moving to TX if Hitlery becomes President.

I am continually amazed by Christans that seek to create heaven here on earth. This is exactly what the apostles continually thought Jesus was going to do until his crucifixion. Once he came back they figured it out.
