The True Meaning of Patriotism
Here is an excellent article on a great site called Beliefnet&Sojourners. The author tells of two types of patriotism: Destructive and Constructive. It is very easy to figure which of the two “W” and the Neocons belong. I was very impressed with this part of the article by the author Obery Hendricks: “If we who call ourselves patriots are to be true to our faith, our patriotism must ever be constructive, because constructive criticism of governmental policies and practices is squarely in the tradition of the biblical prophets and the gospel of Jesus.”
