If you look deeper you’ll see that with each passing year the gap of nonbelievers shrinks.
This time last month, I was hammering away on my February editorial and simultaneously listening to President Obama’s sixth State of the Union address to Congress and the nation.
I kept the YouTube stream of the speech in a tiny video player in the lower-right hand corner of my screen. The first 30 minutes of the Jan. 28 address followed the similar pomp-and-circumstance formula of past speeches. There were senators and representatives reaching over one another in hopes of shaking the president’s hand, a plethora of standing ovations, and hilarious facial expressions from Vice President Joe Biden and Speaker of the House John Boehner.
