Re: To the individuals who think America was founded on ChristainValues..

[Phil Barringer]

Just for reference, please DO NOT confuse a government with a religion. A
government is run by people; a religion, whatever guise it comes in, is run
by faith. Catholisism, for example, is a religion. The Catholic Chuch is a
government. Don't believe me? Ask the Church of England, the Germans or
the Muslims. Only a government can wage war.
