I'm an atheist. Personally, as long as the Constitutional barriers between church and state are respected, I have no problem with anybody saying this is a Christian nation, because it is--most people here are Christian. Just like Israel is a Jewish nation, even though not EVERY SINGLE person there is Jewish.
Although I think they're misguided and need to quit taking fairy tales seriously, I can't say I have a problem with Christians. Their extremists rant about how AIDS was made to punish gay people and dinosaur fossils were planted here by Satan. Which is stupid, but considerably better than strapping bombs to themselves and blowing up women and children, or flying passenger jets into skyscrapers.
