“It’s unimaginable that we keep pretending that this is not a country of faith.”
New York Mayor Eric Adams was clearly flummoxed Monday when he made this proclamation about faith in America — a perplexed and unwavering reaction to persistent questions he has faced surrounding his beliefs about the separation of church and state.
“The body dies.” I can’t think of a better way to describe our ever-decaying culture. But he wasn’t done there. “I am still a child of God and will always be a child of God, and I won’t apologize about being a child of God. It is not going to happen.” Let’s look at one more proclamation he made at the interfaith prayer speech — one of the most pertinent to the debate: “When we took prayers out of schools, guns came into schools.”
Despite my disagreements with Mr. Adams on a slew of issues, his refusal to bow to the mob and his recognition of the essential nature of faith must be commended. Mr. Adams is right to note the horrific impact our godless culture is having on our children. Furthermore, his discussion about his own inability to separate his personal faith from policymaking is a long-overdue admission that simply states a common sense reality.
