Secularism is not only indifferent to alternative religious systems, but as a religious ideology it is opposed to any other religious systems. It is therefore a closed system.

Not to decide is to decide.

What we are seeking so frantically elsewhere may turn out to be the horse we have been riding all along.

We now live in a 'post-Christian' America . The Judeo-Christian ethic no longer guides our social institutions. Christian ideals and values no longer dominate social thought and action. The Bible has ceased to be a common base of moral authority for judging whether something is right or wrong, good or bad, acceptable or unacceptable.

I am dead against trying to keep religious conservatives out of the political debate. The tactic of exclusion is self-defeating.

There has never been a better raconteur than Jesus of Nazareth.

Instead of a 'Western Christianity,' we now witness a post-Christian West (in Europe) and a post-Western Christianity (in the global South). America is somewhere in between.
