It is worth repeating especially in the last 13 months since the attack on America. The idea that the US is an Xian nation or was founded on Xian morals, is one of those "truths" that people accept just like any big lie that is told enough.

It's like a line of "logic" I saw on an Xian BB recently that went something like this: "Well, as the saying goes, there are no atheists in foxholes, and therefore ..." <img src="graemlins/banghead.gif" border="0" alt="[Bang Head]" /> <img src="graemlins/banghead.gif" border="0" alt="[Bang Head]" /> <img src="graemlins/banghead.gif" border="0" alt="[Bang Head]" /> No. NO. NO! All that phrase proves is that those who say it and believe it have never met an atheist military member. And if the military has a similar makeup to the rest of the country, there should be tens of thousands of 'atheists in foxholes' (or in ships, on planes, etc.)!
