There is an incredible amount of prejudice in Evansville, IN. Mention Hispanics and inpenetrable walls go up. They are 'illegal aliens', and they 'don't speak the right language' are the common rejoinders.

I tire of American exceptionalism. It is not just uncivil; it is immoral. I'm tired of borders and politics, and the dehumanization of all 'outsiders' by American imperialists. It's sad that Christians are fooled by this nonsense. In my judgment, American Christians are more American than they are Christian. They worship Caesar, not Christ. Or perhaps it's better to say that they worship Caesar (the United States) as the Christ. The Kingdom of God is borderless, and it transcends all rights and prerogatives of any nation.

I continue to tire of American Christianity. It is completely vacuous.
