Amen, Brother Daniel! -- Karen, Wickliffe, OH
We wont necessarily prosper, just look at Job, but when the America has reached its peak and begins the quick plummet to destruction along with the rest of the world at least there could have been a greater number saved here if we had held onto the principles of the Bible, the principles of an All-Powerful God. -- A.H, TX
If we all abide by Biblical principles of our own free will, KEEPING CHURCH AND STATE SEPARATE, our country could prosper. Or fail. But probably prosper. If we all practice different faiths (or no faith at all in some cases), KEEPING CHURCH AND STATE SEPARATE, our country could prosper or fail, probably prosper. If we all live out the rest of our lives as atheists, KEEPING THE PROVISION FOR SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE, our nation could prosper or fail. And again, it would probably prosper. But if the wall of separation between the church and state comes crashing down, America will definitely fail, because then everything it stands for will be lost. -- O. Delusional Liberal

Congress has never met the expectations and beliefs and action as it should have... -- Michelle Robinson, Bradenton
