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.

What do you think about support for Muslims in Bosnia and Kosovo against Christians?

The article took clear cut examples such as state funded teaching of Islam in California. Also, no Christian sounding prayer in school regardless if its to ones self. These are individual rights the state is taking away from us. Its not the lack of endorsemento f Christianity from the govt, its the outright endorsement of atheism as the supreme rule of thought.

In those same government schools Christians are called bigots for not embracing homosexuality. That is a fact! I don't have any problem at all with leaving religion out of the government schools. But while it is not endorsed I expect it to also not be condemned.

Liberals control the schools. It is nothing but re-education camp.

Say hi to the gang down at the ADL, the ACLU and PFAW for us.
