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.

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

Hardly. The intent was erect a high wall to keep the state out of the church. The Founders would spin in their graves if they saw how thats been turned on its head.
