"this country was founded by Christians and its laws based, at least in part, on the 10 commandments, Jewish values and Christian values." "our government is forbidden, by the Constitution, from partnering with any religion." These two statements contradict each other. The United States of America was not founded on the Christian religion. Do your research.

Good job, Retired Geek. You successfully contested uber's point and didn't resort to childish ad hominems, like a real adult. Oh wait.

How do you reconcile the manifestations of Christian belief such as its treatment of homosexuals, women and non-Christians, its Biblical law, and overtly racist treatment of black Africans (i.e. enslavement) in the Sudan and elsewhere, with your support of everything homosexual and feminist, as well as left-wing/socialist, free love/sexualization and atheism/anti-religion (especially Judaism and Islam)? This paragraph works both ways, sir.

I guess John Adams, one of the United States' founding fathers, was only speaking for himself, too, when he wrote: "The Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion." Check it out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Tripoli

Nice attempt at using netspeak. You'll get it right next time! PROTIP: Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it's a troll. Stop being afraid to question your religion.

(I Chronicles 20:3) "And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever." (Exodus 21:5-6) "Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones." (Psalms 137:9, KJV) (God sure loves children!) "But those mine...

Hitler was Catholic. Therefore, all Catholics support genocide. Religious extremists are not the majority, that's why they're called extremists.

Because this country was founded on freedom from religious tyranny, the same religious tyranny you Christians seem so keen on bringing back.

I said it in another comment, but I'll repeat it here. He actually stated in his book: In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific reassurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction. Note the difference between "Arab and Pakistani Americans"...
