That's what happens when you base your society off of a damn book... and christians claim were a christian nation... bah....
the middle east is what a christian nation looks like and they say over here that muslims are bad like they need democracy...
i find it funny because that is what a christian theocracy would look like.....
As a Christian, I ardently argue with other Christians that we are NOT a Christian Nation. We were founded by a diverse group of men (Christians, Catholics, Deists, Quakers, etc) and while some of our founding ideologies have roots in Christianity, the founders made it abundantly clear that we are a nation where the people are free to believe what they choose. There is little doubt that this country was founded by religious men as there are four references to God in the Declaration of Independence alone, but we are NOT a Christian Nation.
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.
