America is not a Christian nation. It's a FREE nation. Many people of this country don't believe in anything, except themselves, and that's their right provided by the Constitution. If it was founded expressly to be a Christian nation or a Jewish nation, it wouldn't be the United States of America. (It'd probably still be part of England.)
Dobson AND Hannity need to wake up and smell the coffee. They don't have the corner on God, love, marriage, politics or - much of anything. Do they?
The religion that is infused into our country was ALL done in violation of the constitution. The god part of the pledge of allegiance, to the in god we trust on our money were all inserted by executive order. The founders would have found this to be deplorable. Dogmatic losers that they are, they just can't stand that history proves them completely wrong
Dobson is correct the U.S. has been influenced by the Bible. Slave owners based their belief in slavery on the Bible.The KKK & segregationists argue that the Bible condones segregation & Jim Crow & condemns inter-racial marriage & Lynchings. The anti-feminist believe women are not equal & are a man's property. The Bible also condoned the killing of non-believers including men women children & their livestock-This is not the sort of laws most people would want so Dobson's views are extremist.
Our government is not derived from the Bible. Our government is derived from great wetsern thinkers like John Locke. Dobson is a bully. The ten commandments are an enumeration of the "Well, duh" morality. They have no place near our government buildings.
We are NOT a Christian nation as stated expressly by the Treaty of Tripoli:
"As the Government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Musselmen; and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mehomitan nation, ."
...it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries
You are a dumbass if you think our laws are based on the 10 commandments. You really need to get an education. NOWHERE in ANY of our founding documents is Jesus Christ mentioned. NOWHERE.
No dumbass, murder has more to do with being against one's "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness". When you murder someone, you are taking away their life.
Once again you are using the wrong reasoning - it has NOTHING to do with the 10 commandments IT DOES however, have to do with "life, liberty and pursuit of happiness." The framers of the Constitution - jefferson, franklin, etc. weren't even Christians - they were Deists. If it was based on the 10 commandments why didn't they put the commandments directly in the constitution verbatim? You don't make sense.
Is adultery punished in this country by stoning? No. But it is against the 10 commandments. So sorry dumbass the Constitution is not based on the 10 commandments. You have the brain of a tree slug.
their whole world is crashing in around them. everything they stand for is increasingly being rejected by the american people. as they fall, they and their shadow are begining to meet at the ground below. now all they have left are anti american, neo-nazi, facsist, and separatist views. the sadest thing about them is they truely believe that their guns are going to protect them from a u.s. government tank, bradley , 155mm shell, or apache helicopter.
No America is not a Christian nation. It was founded on Christian principles. Many of the founding fathers were not Christian but they believed that the system currently set up would work best under Christian principles. It's really simple to understand if you go to the library and just pick up a book that was written by our founding fathers.
Books? you ask. What the hell are books?? It ain't on wiki.. hmmmm
The First Amendment Prevents America from being a Christian nation. Or Muslin, Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, Atheist or whatever you believe in. No one faith above others! All are equal and free.
1. This interview was 70% hannity nonsense and 30% James Dobson. What tools.
2. With a world full of terror, sex slavery, child abuse, murder, war, hunger and disease, is gay marriage really the most important issue for Christians who want to do Christ's work on earth?
3. Dobson's Focus on the Family film series in the 70's had a profound effect on me and helped me greatly in my faith. Is this ignorant reactionary homophobe the same man?
did fox tone down o'reilly and beef up hannity? It's nice that they have glenn beck but he doesnt really make libertarians look that good. And i wonder if any of the neo-conservatives ever think that they're hurting the republican party.
It's funny beacuse everytime I watch Fox it's as if Obama's a socialist, muslim, black nationlist LOL. They need more pragmatic common sense commentators
Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin did more to undermine Judeo-Christian "values" than Obama has. Have you ever read Jefferson's edit of the Bible? Seriously, learn your history... this country was started by Freemasons, not Christians.
No, I was talking about accomplishments versus failures. Your argument is akin to those who try to avoid MLK's great citizenship by pointing out that he was a bad husband.
But hey, if you want to disregard the Declaration of Independence, I'm sure Iran would be happy to have you.
I did not say anything about disregarding the Declaration of Independence. Do not ever accuse a veteran of disregarding the Declaration of Independence, unless you are talking about McVeigh. "Bad husband" can be subjective; child molester cannot. We do have laws against that.
The founding fathers were deists.

yeah your kind of taking it out of context.
that law was given to the Israelites for a certain time in history but after Jesus came, he nullified those laws.
