Good word. As a former professional historian (doctoral work centered upon nineteenth-century American history), I affirm that Mr. Jehle's observations are largely accurate.

Implementing the speaker's urging, though, could prove difficult in a country that, no longer a nation, has largely abandoned the founding, shaping, and blessing given it by Christianity. (I note, for those who in ignorance of Christianity fear that its power could force or oppress them, that the Lord God forces no one.

@mjaros46: Indeed, not: the Roman church separated from what now is called the Eastern Orthodox some centuries after the crucifixion. But my original comments applied to the history of Christianity in English-speaking America, in which almost no settlers were Romanist (perhaps 1% of the 1.5 million or so "Americans" at the outbreak of the Revolution in 1775).

I appreciate that you may feel some shame in not being aware of the histories of Christianity or the United States. Simply read!

Perhaps the churches should not VOLUNTARILY sign a contract with the government to be silent on political issues. 501(c)3

@Blackwolf460 - Not true, Republicans seem to hide it better. Both parties are corrupt and need to be done away with.

Who is Larry Craig (a republican caugh in a gay sex sting), who is Mark Foley (a republican caught having sex with male pages), who is Mark Sanford (republican gov who want to have sex in Argentina) who is Ted Hagard (republican, pastor of new church) caugh with gay sex and using meth. is that what you consider morals? is that what Christianity is all about? it's all politics, stupid, they have nothing to do with religion or God.

[Blackwolf460]

sorry but republicans have a much higher chance to have morals and ethics, since most democrats dont even know what those words mean. ive never met a dem or their alter ego a liberal who wasnt corrupt and had no moral or ethical character. they only care about what will benefit them and not humanity. since most republicans also believe in God we tend to follow Gods laws and not our own. conservatives think with their brains and hearts, liberals think with their hearts. thats just the way it is.

Thank you.

@Rowarst

My catholic family agrees with this Dr. Jehle's position. And there are a lot of them.

Christains are just pimped by Republicans, what has voting for a republican politician to do with Christianity? aren't they the same guys sleeping with pages, cheating, lying, taking corrupt money etc?

this is great to bad it was not put on utube until after the election

This is just outstanding, thank GOD for Pastor Paul Jehle. It is time to take our country back from the socialist and communist like Barrack Obama, George Soros and ACLU that are attempting to destroy America moral values and freedom.
