You are the one that insinuated that the founders had to be closet atheists to get by then.(or was it Mark?) Anyway, that is the only "name" I might have called anyone.... unless you care to give us your real name and your real occupation in Nevada, since you are an atheist you won't mind will you? (Oh I know what you are going to say, "Just as soon as you do", well I will say it first. Just as soon as you do I will give you my name too. Are you a closet atheist? If you are not why would you think I would be calling you a name? btw, it is your right, given to you by Christian founders, to be an Atheist, so I pose no threat to you, other than wanting all to be saved. Incidentally, how about a working jackleg definition of Christian for this discussion: What makes you think I intend on having any conversation with you, with this sort of attitude? I am here to learn, and to teach, I am not sure what you are here to learn, but do you think I care to give you venue to "teach" if indeed you are an atheist? Why would I do that? Oh, by the way...the Patrick Henry quote? <<William Wirt, The Life and Character of Patrick Henry,(Philidelphia, James Webster 1818) p. 402, Henry H. Halley, Halley's Bible Handbook(Grand Rapids, Mi: Zondervan Publishing House, 1927, 1965. p. 18, John Eidsmoe, Christianity and the Constitution- The Fatih of Our Founding Fathers, Grand Rapids, MI. Baker Book House, A Mott Media Book 1987 , 6th printing 1993, p.150, David Barton, The Myth Of Separation, (Aledo, Tx. Wallbuilder Press 1991, p. 119, 150. , William Federer, America's God And Country, p. 289.>> Here is another of the non-Christian Henry's quotes Mr. Head. IT CANNOT BE EMPHASIZED TOO STRONGLY OR TOO OFTEN THAT THIS GREAT COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED, NOT BY RELIGIONISTS, BUT BY CHRISTIANS; NOT ON RELIGIONS, BUT ON THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST. FOR THIS VERY REASON PEOPLES OF OTHER FAITHS HAVE BEEN AFFORDED ASYLUM, PROSPERITY, AND FREEDOM OF WORSHIP HERE. Have a nice day. dan
