Dennis Prager explains what “Judeo-Christian” means and why it makes America unique among all the nations:
The United States of America is the only country in history to have defined itself as Judeo-Christian. While the Western world has consisted of many Christian countries and consists today of many secular countries, only America has called itself Judeo-Christian. America is also unique in that it has always combined secular government with a society based on religious values.
Prager articulates what I tried to when discussing whether the U.S. was called to uphold “Christian” values. His column is a good starting point for those who may want to delve further into the history and meaning of “Judeo-Christian.”
