Even some of our oldest universities were founded by Christians, Harvard, Yale (Johnathan Edwards (1703-1758), whose sermon, "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God", which ignited the First Great Awakening in the colonies was the universty's president, as was his grandson after him, Timothy Dwight (1752-1817), who helped spark the Second Great Awakening), Brown University, and Oberlin which was founded to train young men for the ministry to oppose slavery. Our culture is Christian, as noted by Lord Brice the 19th century English commentator on American culture, "Christianity in its Evangelical form is in fact understood to be, though not the legally established religion, yet the National religion". Many states constitutions even required that those who held public office had to be Christians.(September 26, 2012 at 2:48 pm)frankiej Wrote: Being gay is NOT unnatural... and how exactly is it eroding our culture?
I'm fairly sure that quite a lot of our culture was created by homosexuals.
