MOSQUE;
WHEN I WAS A YOUNG
CATHOLIC
SEMINARIAN
THE MISSIONARIES
IN THE SOUTH
WOULD HAVE TO PURCHASE
CHURCH LAND
UNDER ALIASES
THE SOUTHERNERS
DIDN’T WANT
CATHOLIC CHURCHES
IN THE NORTH
IT WAS NO BETTER
I COULDN’T JOIN A BOY SCOUT TROOP
BECAUSE IT WAS IN A PROTESTANT CHURCH
IF THERE WAS ANY INTERFAITH DIALOGUE
IT WAS USUALLY DONE WITH SNARES
ONE WOULD HOPE
THAT AFTER WAR AFTER WAR
TO PROTECT DEMOCRACY
WE’D ACT OUT OF OUR BELIEFS
OR WAS THERE SACRIFICE FUTILE
THEY SAY
YOU CAN’T BUILD CHURCHES OVER THERE
THAT’S TRUE
BUT THIS IS AMERICA
RELIGION IS FREE
TO BE OBSERVED
OR IGNORED
BUT NOT PROHIBITED
HERE
IF WE SAY THIS IS A CHRISTIAN NATION
WHERE IS OUR CHRISTIAN ACTION
IF WE ACT LIKE OUR ENEMIES
WHY ARE WE ANY BETTER
AS A CHRISTIAN NATION
WE HAVE NO DARK AGES
BUT MANY DARK PAGES
OUR NATION
SHOULD BE SEEN
AS ACTING ON OUR BELIEFS
NOT AS A NATION
THAT EXUDES HATE
FOR THE STRANGER
