16. time to send American missionaries to Europe!
geez.

my former relatives all had their children christened, all would consider themselves nominally Catholic, but all, at the same time, were educated enough to realize that the fundamentalist view of a literal Bible (and denying evolution, etc.) was just plain stupid.

I concur.

funny that the countries which are moving away from christianity are also the ones who will not allow the death penalty, unlike killer George, the Texas mass murdering gov.

If America is an example of a christian nation, that's a sad commentary, when we allow children to go without health care or insurance, when we kill innocent people via the death penalty, when we advocate wars at the whim of an unelected leader, when we tax the poorer and let the rich amass more and more at the expense, again, of the poorest of the poor.

If this is an example of a Christian nation, I would imagine Jesus has a little smiting to do when he gets around to judging this place.
