No, America isn't. I certainly am. And I would argue that many of these nominally Christian folks don't really behave in a so-called Christian manner, anyway, so the issue has long been moot. In any case, it'd be grand if more Americans began to understand that religion is a private issue between people and their understanding of their divine, and leave it alone. Jesus said to pray in a closet and not make a spectacle of yourself and your religion. Maybe the type of Christians who care whether their president is a Christian, or more likely, the "right" kind of Christian, could start with that premise for once, in a gesture of good faith, in all senses of the word.
