From an entry in the God's Politics Blog, by Lisa Sharon Harper:
Vernon Cecil, an evangelical Greeley resident, said something that chilled me to the bone in this report. Cecil said, “I’m an American first, then I’m a Christian.”I can only reply with the First Commandment:
I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; you shall have no other gods before me.I wouldn't want to be Vernon trying to explain myself when Jesus returns.–Exodus 20.2, NRSV
