		<description>Mr. Shepherd,

Another interesting, well written article. Perhaps, though, you should acknowledge that the majority of the founding fathers of the most prosperous nation on earth embraced a Christian world view and it&#039;s mores, as have the rank and file of Americans over most of it&#039;s history. 

And of those nations that once possesed it and later traded it in for a &quot;more relevant&quot; model?  The list includes, but is not limited to: England, Germany, Spain, and the Soviet Union. Once great nations, now glorious has beens. 

Unfortunately, the United States is presently marching down the same path. Indeed, if you lined up &quot;American morality&quot; against &quot;Christian morality&quot; you would find that we have strayed very far, very fast.

And in our hypocricy we pray, God bless America.  Not likely.  Continued judgements?  Likely.</description>
