The purpose of life is a life of purpose


People are ALWAYS complaining about our government. Too much control, not enough control. Blah, blah, blah. There is a plain and simple solution to our problems. Ask yourself, what was our government originally based around? Money? Welfare? No, Christianity. When people in America had a more Christian attitude toward things, we had less problems. All our government officials are focused more on reelection and money than the common people. Freedom of religion is good, but how far is too far? We aren’t even allowed to talk about our beliefs in school, so are we really free?

Mike,  While I certainly see your point here, your claim that our nationw was based on Christianity is incorrect.  Example 1: The first ammendment phrohibits congress from instituting a national religion.  Exapmle 2: You claim that you aren't allowed to voice your Christian beliefs in school. When, if ever were you denied this?  How would you feel about a Muslim person speaking about their religion?
