Is the United States a "Christian" Nation?

And what about Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, athiests, agnostics, Unitarians, Catholics who care more about the poor than abortion or homosexuality, non-fundamentalist Protestants, those who are not born again, those who spend more time at football games than church, and those who prefer “Baywatch” over the “Passion of the Christ”? What about gays and lesbians? What about single mothers?
Are we merely guests in a fundamentalist Christian America that, at best, tolerates our heresy?
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

“Blessed is the man…his delight is in the law of the Lord and on his law (Word) he meditates day and night.” Psalm 1.1-2
“Because of the Lord’s great love, we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning.” Lamentations

Oh Gordon and you are so true to form as well. Sorry if I burst your bubble. But you better hang onto those coconuts.
Love the poem!
Again, Happy Birthday! I do hope you are celebrating in style!

Distantless Journey
Be not deceived
by illusions of despair.
Doubt along the way
will come and go,
to go and come again.
Forget not
once this journey is begun,
the end is certain.
No one can fail to do
what is appointed for them to do.
When you walk with him,
with his word upon your heart,
behind each illusion
is the reality of God.
Travel an instant further
on the road where all illusions end.
Now! You are just a step away
from that ancient door
that leads beyond the world
to the Holy of Holies

Vicky–you are so true to form–try to thump away the protrusion if you can with sly innuendo and feminine, castrative techniques–even, if I don’t have the will–I still have plenty of coconuts that can induce involutary response with a priapistic stamina.
