Reply #21: Too bad...

On a political note, not related to whether you believe in creation or not, the American public wants national leaders who do believe in God and the public wants leaders who believe in a human race made by a creator. They want a president who goes to church more often than they do and who feels comfortable saying “God bless America”.

Sadly, the American people also want a leader who believes that America has been given a special divine mission to bring its unique form of civilization to the rest of the world.

Amazing, isn't it, how civilizations managed to develop throughout the world without America there to guide them?

I think America is the least civilized of all the world's nations. Somewhere along the line we have lost the ability to feel a radical amazement at the harmony and complexity and beauty of the world and the people around us. Instead, we have managed to commodify everything... even the air and water! ... even one another!

All the churchgoing means nothing, and the force that creates and sustains harmony throughout the universe (G-d for short) will permit the natural consequences of such callous and unhuman behavior to come to pass in the U.S. no matter how many songs anyone sings. 'Bout time people got smart about that!
