It is no surprise then that when the first Polish Pope, John Paul II, came to Warsaw in 1979, the crowds in Victory Square chanted: “We want God, we want God, we want God in the family circle, we want God in books, in schools, we want God in government orders, we want God, we want God.”

Can you imagine hearing these words in the United States of America? Wouldn't that be wonderful?

It would be a miracle. And it would be the most wonderful thing I can imagine hearing.

I'm leery of any religious people who get cranked up and chant in the streets. Remember the chant, "Give us Barrabas?"

Religion is quiet and personal with me and with a lot of other Americans. It's the way you live your life and not shows of solidarity in the streets.

I know most won't like what I said but I had to say it.
