It is not a belief system. I don't believe in anything spiritual. I gauge my actions by the fact that people are all human and deserve to be treated fairly. When I'm not treated fairly. I reciprocate. That's not Christian teaching, that's innate evolutionary behavior. Just observe chimpanzees in the wild.

As for God in our society, I don't really care about the references to God in the Pledge of Allegiance or saying prayers in school - - as long as I don't have to say them. It means nothing to me. As for patriotism, stop thinking that only the religious are entitled to call themselves patriots. We support and defend this country's principles and the rights that were handed down in the Constitution. We pay taxes, attend rallies, write letters to appropriate parties when members of the Left (and by the way, we are not members of the Left)try to convince everyone that America is evil or that she doesn't have the right to protect her interests. We are loyal to this country. Don't generalize so much. Just because we don't embrace all your beliefs doesn't mean we're any less American.

Yea....it is. Look it up.

Didn't say anything about spirituality.

So....you're an animal with "instincts". *chuckle* I'm sorry....I don't "believe" in the "theory" or the "religion" of evolution. (this could be an all nighter) Why are there still chimpanzees? What happened to their evolutionary processes?

We support and defend this country's principles and the rights that were handed down in the Constitution.

So you support the Judeo-Christian heritage that this country was founded on.....but you don't believe in it? I'm so confused! Why would you fight to defend something you don't believe in?
