I was raised Catholic and I'm Presbyterian now, but I've always been a Christian, regardless of denomination. I believe that Jesus is the way.
There's enough hard stuff going on in people's lives, and you really need that joy that laughter can bring. I don't have to put that in a Christian compartment.
I get along so much better with fundamentalist Christians than I do with wishy-washy liberals, who want everyone to get along.
I grew up as a Christian. I suppose at some level I wanted to believe someone was watching over me.
America was founded on Christians not trusting each other, and they sometimes seemed more willing to reach out to the godless than to someone from another sect.
I was raised by the Christian Brothers, who believe in that, fortunately. They were, to me, the most rebellious arm of the Catholic Church - and one of the most liberal and forward thinking.
The founding document of the United States of America acknowledges the Lordship of Jesus Christ because we are a Christian nation.
When I was in charge of the Christian Coalition I was available to mobilize grass roots support for somebody.

Hats are really for ultimate occasions, so when I make one, I try to do something different, something noticeable.
When people come and visit me and have a hat made, it's a little bit like visiting a psychiatrist, but they don't actually realize that.
Not long ago, a hat was a conformist accessory. Then the 1960s came along, and young people didn't want to wear hats.
For Europe, the fall of Communism has to be taken into account, and the fact that in the fight against Communism the recovery of Europe's Christian roots was the driving force.
I'm a cultural Christian in the same way many of my friends call themselves cultural Jews or cultural Muslims.
The word miracle, as pronounced by Christian churches, gives a false impression; it is a monster. It is not one with the blowing clover and the falling rain.
A Christian telling an atheist they're going to hell is as scary as a child telling an adult they're not getting any presents from Santa.
American products are marvels of production and functionality, but were unnecessarily and unbearably ugly, noisy smelly and offensive.
A lot of Republicans are white Christians, but the Republican Party is reaching out to Hispanics, and reaching out to blacks, and reaching out to Asians.
