The original posting of a quote from someone in a Florida paper was extreme for sure but I posted it to bait the loyal lefties into doing just what they did which is jump all over the "God" references and search Google for logical arguments as to why the country was really not founded by religious men and women. If this was "College Bowl" and I was in a serious debate I would do more research but I will just say that the arguments on this thread from SH and H2o and others simply reflect our fundamnental philosophical difference. I don't think most religion is dangerous or scary. Islam maybe but the good muslims who don't want to kill us all don't say much. I also think the majority of Americans would like a more wholesome life in which morals and religion are good things. Family is a good thing. Going out of your way to tear it all down all the time is pathetic from my viewpoint which , of course, is different from the philosophies of some of those here. The small minority is very vocal and the majority don't want to get involved and risk being ridiculed by those who vehemently oppose their honest views.
