Yeah......sorry, Kevin. That wasn't directed at you and amounted to thread drift. Your explanation was very clear, and your intent became clear as well. My comment wasn't about the Christian aspect of your post, but rather that somehow Lindh was the product of some uniquely American trait. The fact is that Americans, as a whole, don't have a bunch of traits in common. As, I suspect, is the same no matter where you were born. Notice I said traits, and not customs.
