God and Britain

A couple of Times columnists in the past week have mentioned that for a person to talk about God is a real yawn and turn-off. One of them did put it in the context of secular Britain. So for Zach Johnson to be the winner of the Augusta Golf was an opportunity for him to say thanks to God and for columnists over here to stifle the collective yawn. But in the USA such a person is so common as to pass without comment. What does that say about us Christians over here for whom it is so difficult to express our faith and joy in following Jesus.
