A New Year's Resolution

Frederick Clarkson and Max Blumenthal have written some sobering blogs about the theocratic ideas that have come into prominence in America as we ring in the new year. What they are saying won't give Mainstream Baptists anything to cheer about, but it could provide some good grist for a New Year's Resolution.

This year, I resolve to stop remaining silent whenever I hear Christians talk about our country being a "Christian Nation." Nations can't be Christian. Genuine faith requires an individual, voluntary, personal commitment.

Great resolution. I might have to borrow that one.
