America is anti-Christian just because our governmental bodies don't go to great lengths to endorse Christianity as the 'unofficial' religion of the State? This is news to me. I had no trouble going to church both times yesterday. Our local school system doesn't teach Bible classes, but that doesn't have any effect on my ability to study the Bible at home. The local courthouse doesn't display the Ten Commandments, but I'm fine with that since my ability to worship remains intact. I'm quite happy with a government that doesn't allow others (ie- Pat "The Gambler" Robertson) to force their religion on me.

Anyone who thinks that just because Christianity isn't endorsed by governmental bodies that Christianity is under attack by the gummint needs to be inducted into the Tin Foil Hat club.

Calling a still overwhelmingly Christian nation "anti-Christian" is a stretch to say the least. I certainly agree that there's a strong anti-Christian sentiment among certain elites, but they are far from a majority. Also, as JoeMomma pointed out, it's a far cry to say that a lack of governmental promotion of Christianity makes America "anti-Christian." Trying to turn Christians into yet another put-upon victim group will only backfire, especially when the worst instances of discrimination Christians can point to are a lack of prayer in classrooms and religious displays on public property.

Scary. The news of the real world is eerily sounding more and more like straight out the Left Behind series. The same incremental anti-Christian steps, both in rhetoric and legal action. I read all of the LB books up to and including The Mark last summer and would recommend them.

The EU may make the Bible illegal, but they can never make it untrue.

Precisely
