Anyone, peacenik or preacher, who spouts the "we brought it on ourselves" line is a traitor.

Then Jeremiah and others were a traitor in their day for their warnings of divine chastisement (indeed some were shackled by the earthly authorities). Is not God higher even than Country?

Anyone...who spouts the "we brought it on ourselves" line is a traitor.

You might want to save that word for those to whom it actually applies. It will have more impact, then.

And to equate God-fearing Americans with the godless 'peaceniks' is wrongheaded on your part, in the extreme.

Why is the idea that God has protected America for lo these many years, and that He may possibly be partially withdrawing such support, (to the end that we might wake up to how much we are dependant on Him) such a threat to some?

Could it be that such a thought might force them to confront some of their worst fears?

Throughout the founding period of this republic, whenever hardship came upon the country, our leaders instinctively assumed the exact thing that Falwell is eviscerated for...and called upon Americans to pray, and fast, and above all, to repent.

In each and every case, Americans did as they were asked by their leaders, and God delivered the nation, often miraculously.

It is happening again, and many are heeding the call.

Many are not.
