You can't be good enough - Updated

Bookworm has a piece up about America’s morality vacuum.
This is why I get frustrated with conservatives.
There are plenty of people out there who are moral but who are not Christian.
With this one piece, Bookworm excludes those people from consideration.
The discussion is no longer about morality, it’s about declaring that the only morality that matters is a Christian one.
Suddenly Christianity becomes the only acceptable moral choice.
And all those potential allies, me included, are just so much rubbish to be discarded.
That isn’t exactly moral, is it?

Addendum: Okay, I had insomnia and was up far earlier than I should have been. It’s Bookworm from Bookworm’s Room, not Bookroom. I’ve fixed it above.
