You are the one spouting drivel and trying to destroy the American way of life.
From Jefferson:
. . . No man shall be compelled to frequent or support any religious worship or ministry or shall otherwise suffer on account of his religious opinions or belief, but all men shall be free to profess and by argument to maintain, their opinions in matters of religion.
It is written in big words in his memorial.
America never was, is not and hopefully never will be a Christian nation. At a fundamental level there is no difference between you and the Taliban.
The difference between the USA and Afghanistan is that enough people care about our basic rights that you will never succeed in placing your religious yoke on the American nation.

As a theist could not respectfully disagree with you more.
Its separation of church and state that has kept our country great for 200 years and will keep it so if it is maintained.
religion is a private matter and should stay in ones homes and places of worship. It has no place in our government or our public schools.
As such we have no place to dictate our own morality to others. Just because you view homosexuality as a sin dose not mean that our laws should penalize them. As long as the person is not harming you then what they do in their own bedroom is none of our business.

A Jerry Springer world? Are you insane? No, I want a rational world that does not force a belief system on everyone. You need to research non believers more before you spout your hate.

Christians, Jews and Muslims understand the great danger the international community is in today. The dangers of Hezbollah, Terrorists. etc.
Danger extends to the 'doorstep' of every democratic, freedom-loving nation.
So Christians, Muslims and Jews are contiually growing and learning about the values we share in common.
Jews, Christians and Muslims are accustomed to being libeled, hated, and used as scapegoats for the world's ills.
However, the difference today is that Jews and Christians and Muslims have been linked together, both by the need to defeat terrorism and our commitment to a common set of moral and spiritual values.
Given the global dangers we face today as Jews, Muslims, and Christians together, we are increasingly becomming aware of the ongoing opportunities we have to forge even closer bonds. ~(~

terrific me if i'm incorrect (and that i in many circumstances am) yet isn't the Jewish Messiah meant to be a guy? an incredible guy who brings peace to the international, yet a guy none-the-much less? And does no longer genuine Jews subsequently think of it worthing to compliment him, yet blasphemous to worship him?

Onward Christian soldiers?
I must question, what is it about secular Europe you don't like? Their good schools, ensuring a future for their children? Their healthcare for all, showing that what one does to the least of us, one does to all? Their peaceful means, not going to war and even "turning the other cheek"? Their strong work force and middle class, showing that each, if he honor's his neighbor, is lifted up by all's success?
What is unChristian about any of that? That they define their morality by pragmatic means and look to themselves to do what is right for society? That there is in all of us, even non-christians, the spark of divinity that makes us all able to succeed and be at peace and do well?

I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about to begin with, and long "questions" like this usually spell a blind agenda. However, taken on face value, I'm *glad* that religion has no place in our government. It shouldn't.

Christians are all about fighting. No wonder why there is so much violence in the world.

My thoughts are you are either very young or very uninformed.
Your questions provide no real insight, nor provoke any real thought.
"Anything gives mentality"????
Talk about mindless drivel ....
