The Christian Right keeps saying this is a "Christian Nation" but I have a question: Which denomination?
Conservative Christians wouldn't have to worry about their rights if they weren't always trying to deny the rights of others.
Would a "Christian Nation" be so opposed to Christ's compassion for the sick & poor - US is an Antichrist Nation not a "Christian Nation."

A peddler knocked at the door of a housewife.
"I sell all kinds of things for the house. Do you want to buy something?"
"No, I don't want anything," said the housewife firmly.
"Maybe a pan or a pot?"
"No, I don't want anything. Now, get going. I don't want anything."
"Maybe a clothes brush?"
"No, I don't want anything!"
"Maybe a vacuum cleaner?"
"I don't want anything. Get going!"
"Maybe a tablecloth? Some hairpins? I've got all kinds of things."
"Now, listen to me. If you don't get going, I'll whistle for a policeman."
"Do you want to buy a whistle?"

A social worker met one of her charges on the street one very hot day

For once in his life, the real estate agent decided to be honest with a prospective house-buyer. 'This property has its good and bad points. There is a chemical plant one block to the north and a slaughterhouse one block to the south.'
'Well, what are its good points?' asked the client.
'You can always tell which way the wind is blowing.'
