I do include Catholics as Christians, but some
of the left-wing crowd and media has turned “Christian”
into a word they apply to the “far right” Evangelicals
and try to lump all Protestants and Catholics under it.

‘’The Free Exercise Clause . . . withdraws from legislative power, state and federal, the exertion of any restraint on the free exercise of religion. Its purpose is to secure religious liberty in the individual by prohibiting any invasions there by civil authority.’’ It bars ‘’governmental regulation of religious beliefs as such,’’ prohibiting misuse of secular governmental programs ‘’to impede the observance of one or all religions or . . . to discriminate invidiously between religions . . . even though the burden may be characterized as being only indirect.’’ Freedom of conscience is the basis of the free exercise clause, and government may not penalize or discriminate against an individual or a group of individuals because of their religious views nor may it compel persons to affirm any particular beliefs.”

Why wouldn’t you include Catholics as Christians? You mean all these years I haven’t been following Mr. JC? If you think about it, Protestants are derived from Catholicism, which if you want to keep going, is a splinter group of Judaism.

In terms of population, the US IS a Christian nation.
Especially if you include Catholics in the “Christian”
category. Most or even all of the Founding Fathers were
Christian, too.

The term “separation of church and state” has been
mis-used in recent years by the far Left. All it
really means, per the Constitution, is that Congress
cannot establish a state religion. It doesn’t mean that
religion, discussions about it, or religious displays are
to be banned from public property or discourse.

While most/some of our Founders were Christian, they also recognized that it’s hard for folks to agree on which version of religion, which is why they put in that stuff about freedom of religion, and the separation of church and state. So, it’s not really a Christian nation, although most of the moral issues dealt with in our laws are shared by most religions, including Christianity.

As for Obama, he’s not a Muslim, and he does say the Pledge. More info on that can be found at snopes.com.

Well, he better want Harry Truman or Eisenhower
instead, because the only thing golden about the
Clinton years was all that coinage they stashed
away for themselves.
