in the delirium of conversation with a new friend on the flight to London at about 0346 eastern time, the subject of America as a “Christian nation” came up and the USA’s policy toward the state of Israel especially in light (as I see it) of the injustices committed by said state as seen two mornings ago (or is it three?).
The conversation was based on an understanding of the founders of the US and their level of belief in God, or, as much as one can actually know about such things… anyway, the founder whose house I live near – you know, the guy who cut the miracles out of the New Testament – he was an important founder and I understand from this new friend that there is some newer writing which asks about Washington’s real faith… well, whatever… I agree with Derek Webb, give him a listen,
don’t let your eschatology confuse your Kingdom mindedness
