Yup! We're stupid. But we're not as stupid as the unwashed French and Germans.

Maybe the elite of Europe will understand us more if we rephrase -in more modern terms - the message our forefathers sent them in 1776: "F*ck Off."

"Europeans have to open their eyes to the fact that the U.S. today is rather a different place than what it used to be,"

I disagree. America is simply maintaining the traditional values of Western civilization. It is Europe that has changed and thrown them overboard.

Yeah, OK, Europe, we're stupid. SO ignore us, and never, ever, ever call us for help in anything, because we're stupid and you smart guys don't need our help, tourism, trade, etc. OK?

The vast majority of Americans DO NOT want to lower the wall the founding fathers erected. They do WANT the flimsey extensions built with false reasoning, to be eliminated.

While some of the founding fathers may not have been fervently religious, none of them wanted God and moral values completely eliminated from the political process.

The guideline is this. The government shall make no law governing the establishment of a religion. The practice of religion is untouchable as long as it doesn't flagrantly violate reasoned moral values.

The idea that God couldn't mentioned in the classroom is absurd. The idea that the ten commandments couldn't be posted in public institutions equally so.

The United States was founded as a nation under a clearly Christian influence. U.S. citizens should never forget this, or be ashamed to declare this fact.

The idea that Mohamdism, Santeria, Bhudism and other religions should stand on equal footing in the U.S. with Christianity, is the real absurdity. Those religions are celebrated in other societies. Those who think they are better than Christianity should move to the societies that have adopted them, and live under the conditions their worshipers created.

It is astounding to me, that people should look at what the observers of those religions created in their nations of origion, then demand that our society adopt them here.

Christianity was the guiding influence on the nation that gained unquestioned predominance on the planet. And now it is being disected by adherants to everything else. Sad.

"Europeans have to open their eyes to the fact that the U.S. today is rather a different place than what it used to be,"

This guy is clueless. That's right, we used to all be rabid European type secularists, but we've all suddenly seen the religious light!

Maybe a Judeo Christian nation just lost control for a while to liberal judges in the 60's and 70s? Punishment for the Demo stranglehold in that time. And now, thanks to Rush, Reagan, and the internet, the MSM has lost its grip and that is being corrected.

When the Founding Fathers drafted the Constitution, they took pains to erect a high wall between church and state.

If this fool took the time to look at how the Founding Fathers acted and interpreted the provisions of the Constitution at the time he might learn something ...the passive wall the Founding Fathers drafted in the Constitution is still there but it been buried under a pogrom by the left to purge god from the public square

Couple of inaccuracies:

"Europeans have to open their eyes to the fact that the U.S. today is rather a different place than what it used to be,"

Actually, Europe has changed greatly from what it was 50 or even 30 years ago. American attitudes and values have changed much less.

When the Founding Fathers drafted the Constitution, they took pains to erect a high wall between church and state. The new American majority wants to lower the wall.

Not really. Some of us just think the attempts to constantly make the wall taller need to stop.

Very odd. It's Europe (and liberal America) that has changed, as any reasonable person will agree, yet somehow it is "real America" that has become a different place simply because we exercise our right to refuse to follow them into depravity, decay and decline.

While U.S. conservatives dream of the day when the Supreme Court overturns Roe vs. Wade, publicly funded abortions are taken for granted in most of Europe.

Yep. And only sixty years ago, publicly funded death camps were taken for granted in most of Europe too.

Yes, we Americans are dumb like a fox. We have voted for what is best for America not what is best for France. Hey wake up Frenchies, you are not the center of the universe.

Godly America is "mythic, messianic, conversionary, given to acts of public witness.

Uh, can some red voters help me? Is it allowed to combine parts of the above requirements?

If so, what would be a mythic act of public witness? And don't anyone tell me to start singing a Wagnerian opera piece, that's for Germans!

"Europeans have to open their eyes to the fact that the U.S. today is rather a different place than what it used to be,"

Uh, no, America is exactly as it's always been. The only way to hang on to our way of government is to remain a religous people.

"It is religion and morality alone," Adams advised, "which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand. Religion and virtue are the only foundations ... of republicanism and of all free governments."

On another occasion, Adams observed, "We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion . ... Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

Never once in our nation's history did we call on Europe to come over here and die for us. Twice last century we gave them the lives of how many hundreds of thousands of our youth? How much treasure? And that's not counting the last 50 years keeping the Soviets out of their lives!

Believe me, if this or any other president asks America to EVER do the same again for these European ingrates, they can take a flying leap. They are nothing but a bunch of ungrateful ride-along BASTARDS with no gas money or anything else to contribute.
