So to me it comes down to this. It's between Atheist's who believe there is no "GOD" and and those who believe there is a "GOD". I think the vast majority believe in "God" even if they don't go to church. So it's not a cut dry matter of seperation of church and state.
I don't feel we should alter our heritage to cater to the everyone that come's along. Do we dig up all the crosses at the Arlington National Cemetary and replace them with bricks? I mean what's next, because trust me something will be next. There are people that don't want parts of our history to be taught in schools either. Where does the whitewashing stop?
Separation of Church and STATE has gone way too far in this country.

Our founding fathers had CHRISTIAN beliefs.......but they didn't want a stated sponsored religion. They were being persecuted by the Church of England, and didn't want Church of England or the Catholic Religion being "higher" than the Government in the pecking order.

Our founders were VERY CLEAR on this. It is unfortunate that RADICALS on the left take that to mean that GOD and Country are completely and forever separate.

Like I said earlier. If you don't like the fact that we're a Christian nation. Move SOMEWHERE ELSE.......where you can freely believe that all Totalitarian GUBMENT is the way. I believe there are a lot of 3rd world dictatorships around that would welcome you with open arms.
