Millions of Muslims, Buddhists and Hindus are moving to the United States making a substantial presence for the first time in the country's history.
Most, if not all previous immigrants were Christians from Europe and Latin America. Times are different today.
Many millions more Americans are becoming less religious, are atheists or have left the Christian faith.
The United States is now THE LEAST CHRISTIAN it has ever been in its history.
Racial differences were painful enough for this country.
But, will the religous differences be the final downfall for America as Christians try to defend the nation's "traditions" while Secularists, Atheists, Hindus, Buddhists and Muslims naturally assert themselves over the next several decades?
I think the religious differences will provoke inevitable conflict, - wrong or right - and that it will be unfortunate. This new wave of "Eastern" immigration will have social ramifications for the years to come.
