Maybe They'd Be Happier in France

Don Feder has a column you should read, "The Anti-Christian League," on Front Page Mag (see http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=20520). Abraham Foxman, president of the Anti-Defamation League, and Reformed Jewish Rabbi Eric Yoffie, have been ranting about a theocratic conspiracy to "Christianize America." Yo, Abe and Eric--sign us up! This place needs some Christianizing. But the most interesting thing about the article is Feder's polling numbers about how overwhelmingly the American people support Christianity and reject the aggressive secular campaign against it. As one much wiser rabbi said long ago, "The Bible Belt is America's safety belt." In Western Europe, where there is nothing remotely resembling a Bible Belt, anti-semitism is more virulent now than it's been since World War II. Muslims are torching synagogues while Euro-secularists stand on the sidelines whistling "Dixie."Maybe Abe and Eric ought to try living in France for a while.
