My replies were not in context of patriotism being taught in church, it was in context of the article under discussion. If you get right down to it though, as sad as it seems for so many people not to have been exposed to patriotism let alone being taught it, it’s preferable that such individuals be taught in church rather than not being taught at all. Do you disagree with this?

No, I pretty much agree but i believe we need to be real careful if our patriotism is in line with Gods teaching, we need to remember that we are not of this world and so when our Government starts making rules against Gods teaching then they are anti God.
The only thing we can do is tell it like it is.
If we like it we should say so and if we don`t like it we should say so.
No blanket approval on any thing unless it is clearly approved by scripture.
I have always been a patriot but it was when you could stand up and say in a loud voice (socialism is for pigs) all you would get is agreements.
Now there are so many socialists in Government that every one is afraid to agree.

I have read that book through several times; Studied all my life; discussed it with bible scholars many times more knowledgable than me and still cannot fathom its true meaning.Don't feel too badly; for remember; we are ALL looking through the glass darkly.
