    For lose of you who don't believe in God or Jesus, I think you should have your own holiday like April Fool's Day. God is not a myth and neither is his power. Katrina, Andrew, and many other "natural" disasters should prove that. Live as you will but when Judgement Day comes will you be saved from the eternal lake of fire or will you be hoping to lead your secular life there. And study history the United States was founded on christian beliefs by christian leaders.

    Comment: To sismari94, the country is going to cave in on itself because hotels won't be providing bibles anymore? Calm down will you. The bible has no place in hotels, which see many world travelers of various beliefs staying there. Either provide all the holy books, or neither.

    America was most certainly NOT founded on Christian beliefs whatsoever! The founding fathers founded the county as a secular nation separated from the chucrch in order to distance themselves from the stranglehold religion had on Europe at that time.

    And finally, since when were Christian beliefs not superstitious??

    And also, to both of you, America was NOT founded on Christian beliefs whatsoever! The founding fathers founded the county as a secular nation separated from the chucrch in order to distance themselves from the stranglehold religion had on Europe at that time.
