Creationist radio host: Bacon proves that America is a Christian nation

Bryan Fischer, the Director of Issue Analysis for Government and Public Policy at the American Family Association, hosts a daily radio show called “Focal Point,” described on its website as the “home of muscular Christianity,” which sounds very tough.

On Monday’s show, Fischer presented indisputable proof that the United States is a Christian nation:

“Do you want one single item of proof that America is a Christian nation? And not a Jewish nation? And not an Islamic nation? One single bit of proof is all you need. We freely allow restaurants and grocery stores to sell and to serve bacon. That can only happen in a Christian country. You can’t do that in Israel. I’ve been to Israel. You go into the hotel to eat dinner; you go into a restaurant… you can’t get bacon there! You’re not gonna get it! Because it is a Jewish country. You go to a Muslim country, you are not going to get pork; you’re not going to get bacon; you’re not going to get a ham sandwich anywhere. Why? Because it is a Muslim land. The sheer fact that we clearly allow the consumption of bacon is absolute proof that we are in fact a Christian nation.”

Other than, like, my wanting to be included in what constitutes the United States, that argument has me sold!

[gaspee]

1. Know who else gets to eat bacon?

Atheists! Therefore, the US is an atheist country.

Bacon, yum! Breakfast of atheists (but not vegetarian or vegan atheists - that would be just going too far!)

2. Can you get bacon in an atheistic country?

So what about Kosher pickles? Every grocery store in the nation sells them. Lots of Kosher meats. The reason that Halal is not advertised and sold more is because of idiots like this that worry about what other people eat.

[get the red out]

3. I don't like bacon

Which pile of evil does that assign me to?

4. It's true, God loves bacon!

It's right there in the Bible ... or on the Menu ... or whatever.

"And the Lord said go forth & make thee a hearty breakfast, one consisting of scrambled unborn fowl, juice from the tree of fruit, & bacon. Thy bacon shall be crispy & crunchy, & you shall consume it as the Lord has commanded. Also, you may want some toast. Toast is good too."
