And IF this is a Christian nation why isn't a nice PEDOPHILE priest running it???

How about someone like the Pope running this country?

Why not have a Presbyterian minister run it?

HEY! Elect Mitt Romney and make him King Mormon !!!

Who do YOU want to rule? Catholics? Lutherans? Fred Phelps? Pedophile priests?

This country USE TO BE a Christian nation, back then it was growing and flourishing, back then our country was blest, there was always hope!
THEN we started killing babies, it has all been downhill ever since.
Guess what pro choice people?
We haven't hit the bottom yet! but we are going to and it is not going to be pretty.
We are no longer a Christian nation.
We are a me, me, me nation and we will soon find out the price we will pay.
We are no longer blest, we let it get away.
Thank you to all the progressives that have ruined the lives of our children and grandchildren.
You have succeeded to take away everything that was good and we can no longer call our country great.
I hope you are happy.

roe vs wade was decided in 1973. not sure what you mean by "growing and flourishing" but we've had economic "ups & downs" before then and since then.

if you are talking about the post WWII economic prosperity ( and/or the baby boom ) then...... i'm glad they happened in the historic time-frame that they did but i'd fear a similar scenario today. things change.

And here I thought it was allowing every illegal immigrant to enter into the US with all the different religions that was the downfall of no longer being just a christian nation. When a Country allows all different religions it no longer has one major single religion or god to call it's own.

But they obviously beleived that "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — " The Declaration of Independence

yes mary. now "their Creator" is a personal and subjective term. it could mean the old testament God or.... Jesus, Jah, Kali, Odin, Mother Nature from the old margarine commercials, Zues, a multitude of others or a single celled organism millions of years ago.



edit: neither Jah ( the rastafarian concept of the old testament God ) nor the Mother Nature from the TV margarine commercials existed in 1776 so, technically......... they may not have been included.
