What a RADICAL! The unmitigated *gall* of this man! To say that we are–gasp–a Christian nation?! ;o) just kidding, just kidding
Of *course* America is a Christian nation. And of *course* Islam played no role in securing freedoms here.
American(s) United–what an oxymoron for an organization whose sole aim is to foster disunity and disintegration of the American social fabric.
Thank God for groups like ADF and Focus on the Family that are defending Christian values. Judges that uphold the Christian priciples this country was built on are crucial to the survival of our nation. May God Bless
Barry Lynn, executive director of Americans United argues that Honaker’s take on religious liberty is skewed. In fact, it’s Mr. Lynn’s view which is skewed; more accurately - blind. Over the last number of decades, due to political pressure from gay and lesbian activists, feminist groups, the ACLU and Americans United (truly an oxymoron), our country has spiraled downward into a pit of decadence and immorality the likes of which we have never seen in our nation’s history. We have the breakdown of the family unit; children killing children in our schools; teen suicide; sexual predators of every variety; the legalized murder of the unborn; the marketing of homosexuality as morally acceptable; violence and murder all around us; we are more fearful for our lives now in this generation than ever before. Why? Because people have forgotten God. They have forgotten there is someone to whom they’re accountable. In the name of political correctness and tolerance our country is forsaking its Judeo-Christian principles upon which it was founded and upon which our Constitution rests. Our country is being pushed, little by little, into tolerating everything but Biblical Christianity. The further away from the one True God a nation becomes, the greater danger of its moral decay and final demise. Ideas have consequences. We only need look back at Karl Marx, Joseph Stalin and Adolph Hitler as people who either rejected God altogether or whose understanding of God’s Word was perverted, to see the end result. I applaud Honaker and can only pray that we as a nation can continue to find and support more men like him.
