I heard Dr. Dobson's program a couple of days ago. I was a little surprised to be agreeing with Senator Obama on one of his points. I do not see the United States as an exclusively Christian nation, either. Whether we read surveys from the Pew Foundation or from Barna, we can see that only a small minority of Americans embrace a substantially Christian worldview. Therefore, we need to make broader appeals to natural law and reasoning in order to protect our rights and the rights of others (especially the pre-born). Certainly we should use biblical arguments, too, because they are true. However, we need to realize that Christians are not a majority within our nation. We should be included, but we must recognize that we will not dominate the political discourse. We are in a humble position, but sometimes we do not recognize it.
