Stumbling Through Life

Please, God – Don’t strike me with lightning! I’m just trying to figure this world out. Sometimes I think and say things that are stupid. But sometimes, too, You tell me things that are so meaningful that I simply have to write them down. This blog is nothing more than a diary of some of these thoughts.

Christian... American... Interchangeable?

Saying America is a Christian country is neither Christian nor American.
What does it mean, anyway? Every American citizen is a Christian? It simply isn’t true. Every citizen must become a Christian to live here? That's just stupid. Saying everyone who isn’t a Christian must leave is blatantly and horribly unchristian AND unamerican... and unconstitutional... and really scary!
It cheapens both my religion and my citizenship. I belong to a religion of love. I belong to a country of openness.
So, guys. Stop it already!

Peace, Love, Acceptance
