I guess the the fact that we are supposed to have church and state separate...is still  a fact that sadly goes hand in hand with politics and those politicians who call it forth when it suits there needs.  These people who come on TV news shows to toot the fact that they have are best intreset at heart because they from a church affliation. Since when does the label "I'm a Christain" all of a sudden make you a saint?

I think if you have to state it constanly then your not only trying to cconvince others but yourself as well. All the books in the world can not give you what you don't already have.......a good moral code. The simple knowing of justice, right from wrong and truth. In my opinion and this is not the gospel according to St. Me.....you are either a good person or your not, plain and simple.
