Yes, that's exactly what I've been saying. We are a Christian nation and our institutions were inspired by Christian ideals. However, that is as far as we should take it. I don't think we should legislate religion or tie church and state any closer. Conversely, I don't think we should pursue the path of freedom FROM religion, which seems to be the latest twist this country has taken. Freedom OF religion is the real middle path here and it is the wisest choice.

wonder how did pull this stunt for so long, before it was banned ? Its probably tied to slavery. I'll look further into it, but it smells of religion to me.


A famous interpretation of the Bible is that Cain was cast from the Garden of Eden after killing Able, and was given a special mark to identify him and his decendants. This mark was black skin according to some.
