First, this is not the religion forum. Second, the problem with gas prices has absolutely nothing to do with whether the United States is, or is not, a Christian nation. The causes of the high prices are multiple, and include our consumption habits as a nation.

Thanks for posting some sense. I can't believe that someone would be so naive to actually blame our religious makeup for rising gasoline prices. I'm glad we're not a Christain nation... if they're all that naive!

I also think the prices has a lot to do with the emerging countries picking up their oil consumption as they industrialize.
