[Khepera]

I'm all for separation of church and state. What I oppose is separation of state and morality. I would not want to live in a state of state sanctified immorality. All valid religions have morality built into them and I hope our country will have morality built into it as well. I do not support the alternative. Freedom is only for those who know how to act.

Thanks for the PING. I'm having a real hard time making through that "sermon."

The moral quality of a nation is the responsiblity of the church. DeTocquiville stated that he found the strength of the nation in its churches preaching righteousness. Since Christians have rejected the words of God and are now unable to put up with 'sound doctrine' sin is not longer preached. Everyone has to learn how to 'cope' and 'share'. We do not sin, we have 'addictions'

Do not blame the secular world for acting they way they do, when we, who have the truth, reject it. (Amos 8:11)
