Contents:	Why secularism? The basic logical and philosophical argument -- Atheists are not un-American : atheists are, despite congressman Rabaut, American through and through -- Religion and politics now : the political state of the arguments over secularism in the context of a presidential election -- Why Newt Gingrich's abuse of language matters to the defense of secularism -- History is not on the side of angels : the general history that supports secularism and separation of church and state -- The unchristian roots of the Fourth of July -- The unchristian nature of the US Constitution -- From the shores of Tripoli : why a 1796-1797 US treaty matters -- Ten Commandments : religious manifesto or political gimmick? -- Tolerance, toleration, and liberty : the historical context -- Secular schooling : public-school policies and curriculum questions affecting religious liberty -- Holy days and holidays in a secular society : who could be against a day off, anyway? -- He who is not with me is against me : contrary to the reported words of Jesus, secularism is not anti-Christian -- The naked public square? Clearing up confusion, even among secularists, about the difference between "public" and "civic" -- The big lie : morality and conscience in a secular society -- God's law : Sharia and the Ten Commandments versus the Constitution -- Blasphemy and heresy : where free speech and freedom of religion must meet -- What in the name of God? Why "god" doesn't belong in America's motto or in any official pledges of allegiance -- Questions : frequent questions or claims by Christian-nation proponents with specific answers to the claims -- Conclusion : the United States is and should remain a free country and not a Christian nation.
Responsibility:	by Edward M. Buckner and Michael E. Buckner.
