Asking the Question Again: Is America a Christian Nation?

The basis of every civilization is religion:

West: Protestantism, Catholicism
Russia: Eastern Orthodox
Latin America: Catholicism
Middle East & North Africa: Islam
India: Hinduism
China: Confucianism
Southeast Asia: Buddhism

In the past 5,000 years, there have never been any secular civilizations. If you drift to secularism or agnosticism, someone else will take your place!

And I could argue you see a distinct difference in those regions in how life is valued, the rights of men, etc.

The US was colonized largely by Protestant Christianity.

Latin American was conquered largely by Roman Catholic oriented countries.

The difference is clear.

The rest of the world goes without saying.
