Q: What does American culture need rescuing from? A: What America needs more than anything else right now is to know she cannot exist without the worldview that helped bring her into being. And that was the Judeo-Christian worldview. What America also needs is the willingness to allow the Christian faith freedom of access in the institutions that it allows every other faith to have. Isn't it interesting that when these mainline divinity schools were conservative, room was given for the liberals. But they have become liberal and the conservatives are squeezed out, if not humiliated out, which is a fascinating reality. from: www.gospelcom.net/rzim/publications/essay_arttext.php?id=18In Christ, Bondslave

I say something very similar along the lines.
It is supose to be "freedon of religion"
not "freedom from" religion.
.........sad day that we have allowed.
Good topic... Bondslave makes one think [/color][/size]

The ability to bring religion back into focus would be ideal. Realty is we had that before and look what we did with it. First we took advanage of it then we took it for granted and now it is no more. I believe the Lord was a better way to deal with what American needs now. To bring us to our knees. Even the destruction of the World Trade Center hasn't stopped us long enough to realize what is true. It stopped us for a moment and before we knew it we were taking God out of our Pledge. The day of reckoning is close.

As I recall, only a few people wanted the word "God" taken out of the Pledge of Allegiance. The strong majority in America was very much against changing it.

Himmel: What a great quote! I've said the same thing when I was arguing with my son about freedom of religion. Even though he believes in God, he doesn't think we should have religion in public places. We always argue about this.
