I don't think your a nut job or if you are then it's because there are so many religious nuts out there that people like you and me that are not religious have to do what we have to do to survive in our own minds.\n\n"I'm not religious" \n\nSo I'm not the only one after all.

I regret I have to disagree. First of all , it doesn't mean just because you are Christian, you can neccessary be good. There is no relation betwen non corruption and Christian. Secondly, all the examples of problems cited occur in any country. The US is not alone in this. Thirdly, practices such as the death penalty and the conducting of wars are not neccessary bad. Just imagine what would have happen if the US didn't enter the Gulf War to drive the Iraqis from Kuwait. The balance of power will not only be changed in the Middle East, but the whole world.\n\nSo, having said this, I can't say the US is a corrupt place. Not completely anyway.

It is obvious to me that the evil in the world does not come from following the teachings in the Bible, but come from ignoring those teachings.  If people loved one another, treated one another as they would like to be be treated, were kind and helpful and did not take advantage of one another, the world would be a wonderful place.  That is the Bible teaching.  Where the people live the commandments of God there is peace and harmony.  This is the God I believe in, love, and will follow.  Satan is the one who spreads dissent, hate, discord, war, and suffering.  Satan wants you to not believe in the Bible.  There is no doubt in my mind who the good guy is, and who is the evil one.

I despise the stupidity of most of the responses you received up to this point.\nhave any of these ignorant fools ever even opened a bible??\nI was born an ignorant savage, and a heathen by choice but I have had occasion to actually read the bible. To covet is a sin, dont these border jumpers covet what Americans have? to steal is a sin, these border jumpers steal into our country by dishonest means. to lie is a sin, They are living a lie, each day that they remain within the United States.And the bible states" Love thy neighbor as thyself." what kind of neighbors do the American people have?    A sin?, A multitude of sins by my reckoning!

You know you are in tiled to your belief that is why are country is free for you to post such a remark. But this is the land of the free Created by GOD. The United States allows you to have this freedom and that freedom comes from Jesus Christ our savior and KING!...   In other country's the religion you abide by will kill a man for believing other things. Now is that a merciful God a loving God ? I hope you finally come to the truth and give your life over to Jesus Christ so you are spared on judgment.\n\nGod Bless you..

great post, ranger.\n\nanother thing, too.  christians have difficulty admitting they are a cult.  they are a cult, that's true.\n\nand you are right.  this country was not based on christianity, or the Framers would have declared that in all of those instruments you described.  at least one of them!  \n\nit's amazing where chrisitians "claim" to see christianity, even where it doesn't exist!!\n\nthe idiot, above, who said "you have a self-esteem issue yourself" simply because you posed this question -- he just proved part of your point for you.  these people never cease to amaze me.  i can hardly wait to see how many call you "angry" just for posting these facts.  they'll try to make you look bad, so they can look better, in their own eyes.\n\nsome idiots will come back and try to say "this country is over 2/3 christian" blah blah blah...\n\nwell, guess what?  this country is mostly WHITE.  so, is the US a "White Country"??  get real, you morons!!!\n\nanother thing -- before you clueless cows come on here yakking about "IGWT" on our currency (and "under god" in the pledge of allegiance), let's rememebr it never showed up on our currency until the McCarthy-paranoia of the 1950's.  The comment in the pledge was also added in the 1950's.  Also, IGWT was only placed on a very few US coins right after the Civil War, almost 100 years after the country's founding.  So, that's also an invalid argument.  These things came later!\n\nI already predict that people will lie and claim that most of the Framers were xians.  And then, they'll use "quotes" from madison and jefferson and many others -- quotes that these Framers NEVER QUOTED and that you will not find anywhere in the Smithsonian.  These are all quotes that have been re-edited by Falwell and Co. to make things "look christian".  Been there, done that.  Keep trying, folks.  Like Ranger, I feel sorry for you for needing to go to such lengths to make your religion look better.  It's too bad that you must lie like that!

Religion is just an ideological disguise.  Wars are always about territory and power.  The only reason that the US is in the Middle East right now is because this administration, following in the footsteps of the Reagan and Bush Sr. adiministration, has a serious comitment to creating and maintaining a US military stronghold in the Middle East.  Jimmy Carter laid it all out for the American people in an interview on NPR.  This "war" we are fighting is solely for maintaining economic and political control of an oil-rich territory.  The whole Isreal thing is a bogus excuse.  God will support the righteous--yeah right, what are you smoking.  According to the Bible, God instigated more wars than anything else.  He commanded massacres and genocide.  Isreal was formed, according to the Bible, because God commanded the Hebrews to kill all the Cannonites and take over their territory.  The modern state of Isreal was formed by the Allied powers after WWII because none of their countries wanted to take in all the Jewish refugees, so they picked their "historical" homeland, disposesed all the people already living their at that time and forcefully created a new state of Isreal.  Religion has always been and will always be an intricate screen to hide power-hungary facist regimes.  If people keep buying into the Bush administrations lies that we, a Judeo-Christian country that symbolizes all that is good are fighting Muslim countries because they symbolize all that is evil, the cycle of violence will perpetuate itself, and those people will only strengthen the ideological forces that promote this war.

God is not good, Satan is the best!

There is a theory that America was built on a rebellious, individualistic spirit.  That might explain why the US is different in that regard.\n\nI think this explains division:\n\nBut there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.  II Peter 2:1-3\n\nThere is a lot of opposition to unity.  Within and without.  There are a lot of ways to look at things, some honest misunderstandings, some deliberate false doctrine.\n\nThe Bible really is a lot of information, and some of it is difficult to understand.  I have grown and changed in my understanding of certain things over the years.  Sometimes we disagree because we are in different places in our maturity and understanding.\n\nI think that the Bible is primarily a discipline I need to apply to myself.  It's not about making other people do right.  Any time you take the attitude of applying law to others that you will not keep yourself, that will cause division and discord.\n\nFrom the very beginning Satan used half-truths in order to lead people from God.  He's still doing that.  If He can get us to believe something that is close to the truth, but not quite it, he can lead us to stray.\n\nIt gets heated because we passionately believe it's important.  It hurts my heart when people slander God.  Because I love Him.  It hurts me for their sake as well, because I know they are in danger.  Not with me, but with God.  That's not my wish, but what I understand the Bible to say.\n\nAnd I guess there are some in the Christian community who are "right fighting."  They care less about righteousness than proving themselves right.  Pride is a sin.  Even in Christians.\n\nThe main reason for division is that we fail to put God first.  If we seek Him, He says He can be found.  If we put Him first, He will unite us for His purpose.

Yes, but I don't think it is due to a lack of religion or the devil walking in our midst. In fact it should not have anything to do with religion as there should be a seperation of church and state. Which is not to insinuate that there is anything wrong with religion except that our goverment attempts to limit the power of factions for domestic security. I could care less what people do in their private lives it doesn't carry over to the public arena. I don't agree with the motives to follow but the US could fall as our economy is a source of security. Since WWII we have been economically dominant yet, our economic superpower is waning as various economies around the world are becoming stronger and challenging America. America will become more desperate to try and keep its self secure on many fronts therefore becoming overextended.

The US was originally settled by fundamentalists who were so God crazy they were run out of England. It's been downhill ever since.

The additional details you've added underneath your question say it all really. \n\nAmerica is an imperialist nation that invades others for its own gain. It gives nothing of substance in return (money, sure, but that's a passing nothing). America's culture is less than whatever went before - its cheap and self-centred, consumerist and corrupt. Look what it did to the people of Indochina, with a long and glorious history and a deep seated sophisticated  culture blown into extinction by the vileness of the American way. In another manner the Philippines has been made into an American clone, but devoid of America's wealth, the reality of American 'civilisation' comes to the fore - corruption, poverty and superciality.  \n\nYet, in delivering less to all the people it subjugates, America has paid a high price. It has lost so many of its sons to pointless (and disastrous) war and lost the respect of the rest of the World. Even its traditional and most loyal allies are horrified by the monstrosity of Iraq - a war fought on a lie and solely about securing the oil fields before they fall to the greater Islamic 'nation'. A nation created by America which has for generations, regarding Islam as evil and acted accordingly - depriving proud people across a huge geographic swathe of the earth the same rights and opportunities as the rest of us (while caring for the Israelis of course). American bias has generated a huge army of passionate dissidents bent on destroying the great Satan. America did this. America continues to fan the flames by its actions in Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Palestine. America is blind to all cultures but its own.\n\nAmerica does not understand any way but the American way - in this arrogance lie the seeds of its downfall, nurtured by George Bush and flowering nicely now.\n\nAs you suggest, Bush is seeking his place in history. He has it, but he will be portrayed as one more of a string of presidents that took America (obsessed with its own power and Christian authority) into a dark abyss. An all-conquering America determined to make the rest of the World its slave. I suspect history will record that America failed in this venture - and paid a heavy price.
