- AMERICA WAS FOUNDED AS A CHRISTIAN NATION
1) America was founded as a Christian nation
2) It was not the intent of the founding fathers / framers to create a theocracy. America is not, never has been, and probably would never be a theocracy. So, that argument is off the table
3) In America you do not have to join a church, believe in any specific tenets of faith (though believing in the wrong ones will get you in trouble with the current illegal / de facto / unconstitutional powers that be at the moment)
4) Religious Liberty ... the Right to believe or disbelieve is absolutely guaranteed
5) America was founded on basic Christian precepts / principles and those can only be altered by an amendment to the Constitution
6) As long as America was guided by those principles, they progressed - and progressed faster than any nation in the annals of history. In just over 300 years, starting with 104 passengers on the Mayflower, we went from starving colonists to building the biggest armies, navies, and air forces in the world. America would be the home to the discovery of electricity, the telegraph, the telephone, the television and onto the transistor (which ushered in the computer era) were marked with American influence.
We put more soldiers onto foreign soil to fight tyranny, oppression, genocide, and other abuses than any nation in history. We dominated the whole field of sending missionaries into third world countries to help build communities, start gardens, teach irrigation techniques, and spread the Gospel.
We conquered diseases, set world records for production and fed the world.
7) We did that in our first 300 or so years... we became greater than the Roman Empire became in 1000 years. We became great because our ancestors had a vision. And I'm going to post a link that has not been read nor discussed since post # 1. Is there anybody here that read the first two posts and comment accordingly? If not, THIS, not the last 900 + posts are what this is about:
