Response to "You may Be a Muslim"

After recently receiving an email forward entitled "You may be a Muslim" inspired by Jeff Foxworthy, I saw it as my Christian American duty to respond with a modified version entitled: "You may be an American Christian". This entry is followed by the original Muslim version.
