 Â Â At a press conference in Turkey, President Obama casually rebuked the old chestnut that the United States is a Judeo-Christian nation.
"One of the great strengths of the United States," the President said, "is ... we have a very large Christian population -- we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values."  I expect the president to catch a lot of heat from this statement from the Christian and Jewish religions who believe that they are the bedrock of this nation.    via huffingtonpost.com |
