    Now that's a new slant. The liberals are doing everything they can to
    separate Christianity from the USA, and now I see a Christian doing the same thing
    from the other side of the fence. This cannot remain a "Christian country" with
    both ends pulling against the middle.
    The American ideal only 50 years ago, was a Christian ideal.
