@TheRedwings05 Ask anyone from outside the USA what our dominant religion is. They will say Christianity.
You and others so fiercely hate that fact that you try to say we are not Christian, yet your own reaction against Christianity is proof of the fact that we were founded as a Christian nation.
Every culture throughout history has a religion attached. We are not Hindu, Muslim, Atheist, Zoastrian, Buddhist. Like it or not, we are Christian. You may not be-that's fine-as a whole we are.
NO, As a whole we are Americans with the ability and knowledge to set our religious views aside when governing a people not necessarily aligned with your religion. That is what America is and was meant to be a nation not defined by the religious views of one but the laws set down by many laws naturally encoding within us to maintain a working society. To insert christian value into the schools and policies is abhorrently illegal and a perversion of our countries founding principles.
@burgersap: You illustrate once again the fact that the United States of America has Christian roots. This is not a matter of debate, it is factual history. You can deny history, but it is still as it is.
We are not Muslim, Hundu, Athiest, Buddhist, etc. We are a patently Christian society.
You may react against that, which proves the fact all the more.
You could argue the idea that we are a "post-Christian" society, yet to ignore our roots is showing ignorance and/or contempt for it.
No i have illustrated that humanity has an inherent set of rules that are coded into our being be it hindu muslim or whatever. All you have done is shown your misunderstanding of philosophy. We could argue this for a while but never come to an agreement. What I am sure of is that christian crap like gay marriage and prayer in school have no place in America and never did.
Hahaha! Arguing against historical fact again! You are amusing. You don't understand history. All cultures have had a religion tied to them. ALL OF THEM. Ours was/is Christianity.
Is it our "state" religion? No. That is because of the example of Europe and the persecution of those who disagreed with Catholicism. Because of that we have our 1st Amendment.
Teaching prayer, against gay marriage & other moral issues are historical fact in the USA, whether you like those ideas or not.
Actually, America was one of the first countries to remove itself from religion, blindly ignoring that fact doesnt make you a good debater, it makes you a moron. Congress will not impose a religion........... and you're done thanks for playing. The framers were christians but had they been another religion the pruduct would be the same. A nation devoid of overt christian rule which is what we have and have always had.
Religion has and even still does play a major role in The United States of America. Let me just quote George Washington in his farewell address.
"The name of American, which belongs to you, in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of Patriotism, more than any appellation derived from local discriminations.
With slight shades of difference, you have the same religion, manners, habits, and political principles....
...Of all the dispositions and habits, which lead to political prosperity, Religion and Morality are indispensable supports...
...And let us with caution indulge the supposition, that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect, that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."
The USA did not "remove itself from religion". Read George Washington.
"Thanks for playing" You are funny. If you want to walk away and say "I win", that's fine with me. I'm only interested in exposing the truth, not "winning" some lame "debate" with someone who already knows everything.
It's good to hear you admit that Christianity (a religion) HAS had major impact on the USA. You prove my original point; that religion has a major impact on every society. Theocracy not required.
i am a proud union ironworker form detroit. The us goverment needs to go to the south and change the 1890s way of thinking. Hannity 16year old daughters have sex on saturday and go to church on sunday for forgiveness
Both of these losers do nothing good for the usa. always talking about christian ways. These ppl are so dumb. the usa is not a christian country. bla bla bla. Abortion this.Abortion that. keep your religion bullshit out of politics.
McCain has been a poor loser. Can't say one good thing about Obama becvause he lost to the man. Pitiful poor McCain. He should try brushing his teeth once in awhile.
I think mccain is about to have the BIG ONE ELIZEBETH! Ha Ha Ha...I'll send the loser a DEAD SKUNK for the funeral, maybe his pasty looking wife could use it for a door stop.
Do not Re-elect John McCain. Cindy McCain No on H8? RU kidding me.
Senator McCain is a PROGRESSIVE? It is very disappointing that Sarah Palin is campaigning for him instead of J.D. Hayworth. McCain needs to go!
Palin Sorry to hear that you are supporting McCain. Up to now, I thought you were part of the solution, but youve shown yourself to be part of the problem.
@ready2roll You can express whatever you want, but your opinion gets lost when there is hateful words used in the message. It is fine to disagree, but use better language. Using hateful language towards those you disagree with is not helpful to our political process here in this country.
I doubt that even with John McCain as president that much would change. He knows absolutely nothing about the economy. McCain would have been very easy to manipulate. He once said that he wishes that Fed would lower the interest rates to zero!
I'm not pro-McCain but i hate it when people make statements like this- tell me, what would happen if the interest rate was lowered to zero, and how does it affect money supply?
@clevebrowns3 please do lead me to such a link. That goes against all he has advocated for, which is against current fed policy. In fact he has endorsed Jonahthan Taylor, who has advocated raising interest rates, quite contrary to what your are saying. besides he has been in the senate for 22 years, so it depends when he said it as well.
Sad truth why McCain lost, is his broken face. I was told by a number of teachers (through out schooling) that appearance has a lot of psychological effect (and they mentioned time and time again about just such losses). People voted for a younger better looking guy its also could be why Clinton got in. We as a country are not over judging a book by its cover.
that had little to do with it...I was following the election closely and the Republicans pulled into the lead just prior to election day, then that economic crisis hit, the stock market tanked and votes flipped.
McCain's a fucking loser but he'd still be better than Obama and do less damage to the country, but the people had enough of Republican rule, hence the close race.
Frankly I'm happy McCain lost, Palin sucks shit too. Now that people realize liberals are far worse Reps will win in 2012.
@jeffsadowski This is soo true. You should add Kennedy here too! But as for Clinton in 1992, Ross Perot seriously split the Republican vote. But certainly in 1996, against Bob Dole, it was the case. Great comment!
@bonker333 McCain voted for the Wall Street Bailout, supports Cap and Tax, and was one of the only Republicans to promote that amnesty bill two years ago.
I voted for McCain but only because he isn't Barack Obama.
@Max20854 He does not support Cap and Tax. He supports the Pickens plan, which is a free market solution to tapping American resources for alternative energy. Lets get our facts straight. Though it's a shame that he played the latino vote by voting for the amnesty bill, a true liberal position. I don't think he compromises conservative values as much as conservatives admit.

@burgersap: Religion influences everyday society. A Theocracy is NOT required, and is illegal by our Constitution (as noted earlier).
Yet, the USA did NOT 'remove itself from religion'. Read George Washington:
"...Of all the...habits, which lead to political prosperity, Religion and Morality are indispensable supports...
...reason and experience both forbid us to expect, that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."

Grow up. Begin thinking. Stop acting like children.
What do you think of Obama's 30,000 troop surge after months of "thinking" about it? What about promising to pull out after 18 mos?
Obama should have made his decision much sooner, saving the lives of many US soldiers killed with no help
