I agree. I'm in the agnostic category but my research indicates clearly that our founding was influenced by Jewish and Christian concepts. I don't believe we are a "Christian" nation in the way Jerry Falwell means it though.

But what really gets me is that in an era of Muslim suicide bombings and the decapitation of journalists, this bunch is so fearful of Christians. It's almost comical. Look out everybody! Here come the Baptists with bombs strapped to their chests.

Not everyone places short-term physical security above long-term cultural security, and many believe both present long-term threats, both culturally and physically. Those who don't want a theocracy are threatened under any theocratic regime.
