I cannot find my punch bowl so let this tiny missile suffice.
The statement in last week's letters to the editor section in the Times-Union was that the U.S. is the greatest because of the Christian religion. I disagree. In fact, it is my opinion that if we hadn't had so many wars over religion of all types down through history and crooked preachers, we would probably be exploring the far reaches of space by now.
One thing I must hand to religion, it is a money maker. It brings in over 500 billion a year in this country alone. Tax free!
