I often wonder why commenters here cite the Christian God as the answer to the perils facing our nation. When I look at the Christian similar faiths it seems to me that they believe God will wipe the slate clean on earth or else take the good guys to somewhere else nice. So why bother to fix our ecology or our economy? This is a fundamental disconnect between Christian conservatism and my own brand. I'm not content to simply let God sort it out.

Although studies show that we conservatives are usually happier and more optimistic than most about our personal lives, we also tend to be a bit more pessimistic than the average person about the country. We look at our unsustainable level of spending, the dramatically expanding, increasingly lawless welfare state, encouragement of tribalism and class hatred as a political tactic, hostility towards Christianity, schools that teach socialism and liberalism, the morally bankrupt entertainment industry and the reelection of a man who may have had the single worst performance as President of anyone in our nation's history and we quite naturally...
