"A people amongst whom religion and law were almost identical" (Hawthorne, 47)
 * Is this really separation of Church and State?**

"Let us teach our children that the God of comfort is also the God of righteousness: Those who trouble their own house will inherit the wind. Justice will prevail." -Bill Clinton

"We remain as a young nation, but in the words of scripture, the time has come to set aside chidlish things." -Barack Obama

"The great strength of America's the fact that America is full of God-fearing and decent soles." -George Bush

"If you see somebody in need, put your arm around them and tell them God loves them." -George Bush

34 of past 42 presidents have been Episcopalian, Presbeteryian, Methodist, Baptist or Unitarian- all strands of Christianity. There has been 1 Catholic President, 0 Jewish, 0 Muslim, 0 Buddhist, 0 Hindu, and 0 of thousands of other religions.

**What we should be thinking...** "Maybe all men got one big soul ever'body's a part of. Now I sat there thinkin' it, an' all of a suddent- I knew it. I knew it so deep down that it was true, and I still know it." (Steinbeck, 24)

"I got thinkin' how we was holy when we was one thin, an' mankin' was holy when it was one thing. An' it on'y got unholy when one mis'able little fella got the bit in his teeth an' run off his own way, kickin' an' draggin' an' fightin'. Fella like that bust the holiness. But when they're all workin' together, not one fella for another fella, but one fella kind of harnessed to the whole shebang- that's right, that's holy." (Steinbeck, 81)
