The government has both a legal and moral right to take a portion of private incomes to spend on public goods... and I do not think America is a Christian nation, there seem to be two America's, the America of the youth, the students, the politically conscious workers - and then the conservative, christian right America, which is repressive, intolerant, and mistrusts everyone.
It is very hard for these two countries to reconcile themselves into a common purpose.
