I can't believe the world has come to this. When someone can't voice
their own beliefs the world has come to a very sad state.

I for one would be happy to have Christ be my backup.

Mr. Runnion,

You are being prejudice against not only Christians but anyone else that
wants to post a tagline saying something they believe. There is
something inherently wrong with that kind of thing.

As far as I am concerned, Bruce you keep it up I for one like the
tagline.
