Not necessarily. I just don't panic if there is a cross on government property or a Christian symbol in a war-memorial. I believe liberals are taking seperation of Church and State too far. A realistic purpose of the seperation of church and state is making sure that no faith is enforced on the American people. That is it's important role in America, not to strip every memorial and historical monument of it's Christian symbols. The seperation of Church and State also doesn't mean that America should be more of an atheist nation, as some people are attempting to create.

I favor a country which leans toward Christianity, not to enforce the religion on the people, but to base certain policies on it(i.e. abortion, self-defense etc.).
