In Praise of the First Amendment
Despite appearances to the contrary, the Bible is not a book: it is a library of books collected together between the two covers of a codex. As a masterpiece of world literature, a source of ethical reflection and contemplation of the human condition, it has few peers. To offer it as the "constitution" of a modern state, however, is sheer madness.
Anyone who learns to read the Bible with a critical eye will find its text at variance with many of the dogmas peddled by Christian churches. If the United States is a "Christian nation" (as some insist) it is a nation with a very complicated relation to the Bible.
LET US PRAY...
