re: #254 HappyWarrior
A seminar I attended a few years back by a visiting professor from Baylor showed that nations such as ours that have no official state religion tend to have much more better church activity than those with one. Thought that was interesting personally.
Baylor gets a lot of SBC kids, fwik. They have an interesting history - all of Baptism in the US does, really. Ironically, the more Fundamentalist and insular they get in Baptism, the better they seem to understand the separation/establishment issue.
