This is an extremely crucial observation. Christianity's last ties are being
severed from the state by the courts and Christians will be increasingly
subject to a world fashioned by atheists or even other religionists who are more
religious and block vote as Jews do (the orthodox New Square community elected
H. Clinton). With steady Islamic integration we run the risk of losing the
government to the block votes of religions which have historically conflicted with
Christianity.There was a time that the churches were the bulwarks against
government and big business because they filled the essential role of organizing
communities. We are islands without our church communities.
