Since the "Purpose Driven" Movement, the Ten Commandments are now known as the "few suggestions".

Wow. The ACLU brings lawsuits against any mention of Jesus in schools or public displays of Christianity. People for the Separation of Church and State go after every public Christian expression (while leaving other religions alone for some reason). Popular media denigrates Christians, Protestant and Catholic alike. And you blame Biblical illiteracy on a recent evangelism movement?

No, that is ridiculous. These new movements have compromised Christianity to the point where no one even knows the difference! Their theme is to "make the church appear as the world, so the world will come to the church" instead of separating themselves FROM the world and letting God bring the people in.

Actually, Biblical illiteracy is what allowed the Purpose Driven Movement to begin with. Church leadership has no discernment for the false doctrine that they bring in to undermine solid Bible teaching.

Liberals divide the population of America into two groups: "guests" and "hosts." In American chr*stians are the "hosts" and non-chr*stians (no matter how fundamentalistic their beliefs) are "guests." Secularism then becomes a war, not on religion per se, but on the religion of the "hosts," since the free and even subsidized expression of the religions of the "guests" is interpreted as secularizing.

As a non-chr*stian myself I find this very embarrassing.
