Newsweek magazine's cover proclaims The Decline and Fall of Christian America, while the article inside the cover proclaims The End of Christian America. A second, and parallel, theme also emerged during Barack Obama's tour of Europe. Not only is the United States not a Christian Nation, it is not exceptional.
The emergence and strength of these two themes, the disdain of Christianity and the denigration of American exceptionalism, are dangerous. Nothing has changed in thousands of years. They still rise up in every generation to destroy us, but this time the names are not Haman or Adolf, but Mahmoud and Osama. And on this earth, it will be Christian Americans almost alone who will stand with us.
I'm reminded of the bumper sticker from the 1960's: "If you hate cops, next time you are in trouble call a hippie. " Jews, of all people, should not wish too hard for The End of Christian America. There is no one else to call.
So particularly at this Passover time, we should not wish too hard for the End of Christian America. We might just get it.

This year in our school district, Easter Vacation(Spring Break)started a week early so that it completely bypasses Good Friday and Easter.
I was wondering if they just goofed during scheduling or if there is a more nefarious reason for the change.
The majority of white Christian America (not CINOs) showed a lot more concern for Israel’s survival than 78% of (liberal) Jewish America in Nov 2008.
I know conservative Jews that tried to convince friends and relatives that someone was a major danger but their pleas fell on deaf ears.
Liberal Jews in America would have had no problem having Hitler and Eva Braun’s reanimated corpses in the White House if Adolph had a D after his name. Arafat’s reanimated corpse could have been the VP.
The only good thing is Israelis woke up and voted for Bibi.
Bibi just barely squeaked by, didn’t he??? Pathetic....he should have won by 85% of the vote!
When we see their actions against him, remember what we are to learn from it.
....And always stand with them, it is God's will.
Christian EUROPE is not dead at all, in fact I believe that we are going to see a great Revival.
(It better happen SOON!)
You said — Christian America is not dead at all, in fact I believe that we are going to see a great Revival.

Well..., “Christian America” is not dead (i.e., those who are Christians in America), but America as a Christian nation is dead. It has been for about 40 or so years, at least.
As far as seeing a great revival, it doesn’t appear that the Bible says this is going to be the case. It would seem that the Bible indicates that Christian faith will decline the closer we get to the return of the Lord...
I personaly am Post-Trib. I belive that the Tribulation will be the Church’s finiest hour and that the LORD will use his Church to defeat the AntiChrist.
Well it is ALIVE and well at our house and WILL REMAIN SO. I don’t give a muslin homosexual’s butt what Oscuma says, I will never leave my religion, never accept him as president, and still firmly believe he is a lying, muzzie, ass hole.
If you asked the Christians in Darfur, they would tell you the tribulation is happening now.
American Christianity has some very big problems to overcome.
Maybe... but after 2/3 of the world’s population is killed though...
