Where are all these Christians trying to take over the world that everybody keeps talking about? Sure, I see the people on CNN and hear of Christian pollitical agendas on stuff like the 700 Club but I haven't seen any people busting down the doors of our institutions to make everybody else think and live a certain way. Have you? Of coarse we all have a respability to live by what we think is right, at home, work and politically. Look where you see something screwed up and I assure you Jesus Christ isn't wanted there

Do you have an agenda to put Christians out of schools, courts and government the way your political ancestors put the Jews out of schools, courts and government, accusing them of being what was wrong with these institutions.
Where would you like to see Christians - concentration camps.
People such as you are one of the reason Fundamentalism is growing in the US. Your bigotry is creating the same Christian extremists you fear.

If you could go back in time 50+ yrs or more and compare government, schools, etc. with today, you would realize that there was a MUCH larger influence of Christians in the public sector than there is today. If you don't like the Christian influence today, you would have hated it 50+ yrs ago, especially the time of our Founding Fathers. You should do some research and see that our Founding Fathers had very strong, deep Christian convictions and almost all of them credit this with the origins of our country, government, Constitution, etc.
I think it is very interesting and ironic that our country started losing it's morals about the same time the Christian influence began to diminish in the public sector (i.e. prayer removed from Schools by the Supreme Court in the 50's). Draw your own conclusion.

some right wing fanatics have an agenda.
they don't want freedom of choice.
and our forefathers were careful to write in legal protections from that.
our country was founded in a large part on freedom of religion.
to lose that would be to lose the USA.
the old USSR had the one religion rule.
very commie. exclusive
not inclusive of all -socialist or democratic..
both Democrats and Republicans believe in freedom of choice for the most part.
there are radicals on both sides left and right..that do not in any way but maybe something very minor represent the groups.

This country was founded upon freedom and not religion. Christianity has caused a considerable amount of blood shed through history, but they are not alone in their steaming, twisted agendas. They mean well I guess, even the radicals. Religion in it's self is a collective effort of the weak to control the strong. And it is not going be easy to convert everyone to some particular faith no matter what it is. I guess their agenda is to try. America is a melting pot of faiths, but was not founded for religion, but for freedom.

Considering there's supposed to be a separation of Church and State you would think they would stop trying to shove their beliefs down the throats of those of us who don't believe the same things they do. Unfortunately, Christians are a majority in this nation, and the majority rules.

No, Christians have never been a big factor in politics, schools or in our court system. Why? Because they're afraid of what others might thing of them. It's time Christians stood up and got back to what our founding fathers did when they created our government. A belief in God, that's how our country was founded, let's get back to preaching and praying in our schools. To many people are afraid of the ACLU and are afraid to stand up for their rights. This thing about seperation of church and state is being blown out of proportation. When they took the Bible and prayer out of schools, thats when this country started losing it's moral values.

No, actually because God is no longer there is why everything is screwed up. Case in point: Atheists had God taken out of schools and kids with guns moved in to the vacancy going on murder sprees. If that doesn't prove we need God more than ever, I can't think of more compelling evidence.

I don't know, but the anti-Christian secularists certainly did, which is why things are so screwed up.
Reject the Judeo-Christian order upon which Western society is founded, and we will have social problems and a tyranny the likes of which has never been seen before.
I see it now all over, and it is absolutely hideous.

No. But many of those who call themselves Christians do.
