It will be a day of patriotism - wearing red, white, and blue, parades, barbecues, music, fireworks, baseball, political speeches, and other traditional expressions of pride in the United States of America. Except perhaps for a firecracker accident or being hit by a foul ball, all harmless fun, right? (This essay will not deal with concerns about the Sabbath, on which July 4 falls this year.) Some Christians frown on national patriotism - “affection and vigorous support for one’s country” - because of …
