re: #265 Glenn Beck’s Grand Unifying Theory of Obdicut

Well, like the gigantic move to tear down separation of church and state. There was never a time in US history when church and state division was significantly weaker than today. Yet the idiotic social conservatives, by and large, think that the country has moved away from the Christ-filled mission it has.

I believe you’re wrong on this one. When I was a kid in the 50s, we started every school day with the lord’s prayer as did most all school children throughout the country. Christian symbolism was everywhere, including public squares, during their religious holidays. We’re still fighting religion based laws. It took Madeline Murray O’Hare (among others) to bring this stuff to attention and begin to honor the separation of church and state.

It is quite different today. In a very good way. Still a distance to go.
