I think Dennis Prager is very close to accurate. It is a frighteningly lonely position that we are in.

I do not doubt your claims, but they do not overthrow Prager's point.

Christianity may be spreading in many areas, but Chrisianity itself is very split in its socio-economic beliefs and support. I have been stunned by some of the statements coming from the pope and the vatican lately.

Capitalism has been gaining influence in certain areas, but in many of those areas it is mixed into a strange brew of other philosophies. I don't yet have a lot of confidence in how Russia and China are going to turn out for instance.

In the US, yes Conservatives are currently doing well, but these things can change so rapidly. Reagan was wonderful, but then Clinton managed to get in and do tremendous damage.

Just look in this country at how the black population (90+%) blindly follows the Democratic Socialists lead, whether they be Christian or not. In fact they criticize any who do not buy into the system "Uncle Tom's", oblivious to the fact that the definition much nearly in fact fits themselves as faceles tools of the masters of their fate i.e. Hillary et al.

This is the reason about one million non-Muslim Sudanese have been killed in the last 15 years --

First, fellas, this figure is only half of what the estimates are. That's his first mistake.

The second mistake is that Christianity is on the rise, ahead of Islam and continues to outdistance it. Fox News did a segment on the statistics on 1/3/2003. Islam is NOT the fastest growing religion. By 2025 Christianity will have reached a point where Islam will never be able to catch up.

One fact the author seems to miss is that oppressive regimes, including Islamic regimes, hold most of their "converts" by force. It is illegal to be anything except Islam, for example. Not so with Christianity and democracy. You are still free to be a pagan or communist or socialist here last time I checked. Remember the "Gates test?" Open the gates of the US and which way do people go? Into the country. Open the gates of an Islamic or communist country and which way to the people go? Out as fast as they can.

Our biggest worry at this moment is not any idealogical threat; it is offering our soverignty to the UN. The second biggest threat is internal decay.
