While curches in USA were with wide OPEN doors EMPTY
the closed doors of churches and mosques
in former USSR contained sounds of millions of prayers carried out in the silent cold nights by those who needed God...

Solitaire,

Your short commentary ought to contain an explanation of why the US churches are mostly [b]"EMPTY". It should be interesting coming from one of strong Islamic belief.

My dear

At the same time American presidents were claiming
that they have the HOLY mission of fighting communism
everywhere which was their excuse to wage wars all
around the world by the name of christianity...
at that same time America was the most currpted country
in the world!and bars filled with drunkards...
religion in america is just like democracy in america
not more than shiny clean words...but empty
of course you have seen those monkies jumping in the
church with those dramatic words : God loves you, come
to him, Jesus told me he loves you people of america
be happy...remember Jesus loves you...
trained at Hollywood...this is the american style...
ACTORS...AT CHURCH....AT WHITE HOUSE...WHEREVER THEY ARE..

By way of response I would like for you to go to my web site (www.nonson-benecabal.cityslide.com). Access the Discussions, under Anarchy and Revolution, and read the posts by Angela Green. Her stated political position mirrors mine very closely.

Love


-Nonson-

Soltaire, you've said it :"American presidents were claiming that they have the HOLY mission of fighting communism everywhere which was their excuse to wage wars all around the world by the name of christianity..." =>too much "holy" in politics must have bad results.

There is one more reason. Religion in countries connected with former USSR was a sign of being "against" (party, communism etc.). In America you can easily choose the church that you prefer and change it if you want. No risk. No problem. People need sth. that's above them. If any spiritualism and mystery is forbidden you're able to do everything to reach it.

Solitaire,

My dear, There is a minor mis-conception on your part. It is the belief that America ever fought Communism. Or, to put it in a declarative sentence. America never fought Communism. To have done so would have been a foolish act.
