Is the US a Christion State?

“When religion and politics travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. Their movements become headlong - faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thoughts of obstacles and forget the precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rush until it's to late.” (Frank Herbert)

I have always liked this quote, because it is so to the point.

Religious zellits, are always sure they are right (correct), and make poor leaders.

Thus the "Establishment clause" in the Constitution.

There is a group on here, that insist that the US was set up as a Christian state. That believe that the Christian God is, and was always, what was intended to be ruling the government.

That is not now, or has it ever been true.

SPELL CHECK: zellits =s. zealots

The grammar errors are so obvious a "Smarter Then A Fifth Grader" would be able to see them.

Your perception of "insist that the US was set up as a Christian state" may be askew. The belief is the US was established based upon a Christian belief system. Through my reading of the many comments on the Plaza, I have not encountered a statement to the effect that "the Christian God" was "intended to be ruling the government".

You are exactly correct.

This is nothing more than another punk-arsed liberal trolling for attention at any cost.

Accept it for what it is, and the twit will look like the ignorant fool he, or she, is.

By the way. Good retort, Auntie.

Something tells me this poster lays out his carpet at least once daily and from his knees, bows to the East.

Yes! I suspect he has no problem understanding how to pronounce "Allah" but "Jesus" ties up his tongue.

The U.SA. wasx&is "Our Country"!We The People"means just that!Point counterpoint...That is inclusive to Christians& the many Ethnicities that is a list extensive. The legal way ! A slipery walk is the notion that our founders intended a Christian U.S.A.. In the 80's The moral majority would have it that way...today common sense prevailsn They are of a Faith based notion and that is a good genesis. Forgotten are the illgotten notions of a far right that Falwell held a bit much court in a hyper motive. Do we all forget the scandels that rocked that time. Religion warfare was the order of that time. Ralph Reed deserves much credit on this..staying Faith based yet his skill at getting the Evangicles to show up..good effort that fell short..Evangicals gave the Election to Obama..by not showing up to vote for Romney...a worthy opponent..that fell short for being A Morman..Mitt gave us a template of decency! Now how are we doing now. Thanks a not to the Evangicals for not voting. Some did show up choosing to not listen to the nasay of the semantic based pulpit. Doctrine..Cults..all a silli notion notion when our Country is at stake. Wake up all ye judgemental Extremes this is our country..not a muslim Country! Stop al the interprenational argueements when Mitt gave us a view of "What would Jesus do." By the way as a Jewish man Mitt over Obama anytime! Remember the lessons of staying home..&the goofy arguements over semantics..doctrine..Our Lord was testing you...don't get fooled again!

I like how it defines it's self by quoting Frank Herbert who was a science fiction author. Must be where this useless useful idiot gets it's ridiculous brain dead ideas, from "science fiction".

Ace.

Did you intend to say something which can be understood?

If so, you failed miserably.

Shallom&peace be to all...we,as Americans,have a service to give to our U.S.A. Time to put aside the doctrinal differences...just semantics. As Jewish we have seen this story before and it was'nt pretty...never forget that lesson..we wont! Never again will be put asunder by a maniac...megalomaniac...we are one when we choose to not be divided;may that be the accountable determiner. No more semantics when our Country is in the balance. Never forget..the Jewish certain to never forget! End Quote!!!
