I heard RC Sproul say once that America is living on borrowed capital of Christianity--he seemed to be implying that we are rapidly depleting our heritage for a culture that is bankrupt.

Of all the observations that Alexis de Tocqueville shared about America the most profound were these words;
America is great because America is good. When America ceases to be good America will cease to be great.

One thing I’ve noticed with those countries that are allowing the Muslim invasion is that they don’t seem to have any Christian leaders on the right. Of course those countries have clamped down on speech and anyone criticizing Islam or their governments actions either gets slammed with cries of being racist or the get into trouble with the law.

The destruction of the Armenians was the blueprint for the Nazis.

“A country that believes it has never done any wrong is a country that could do wrong at any time,” writes Murray. “But a country that believes it has only done wrong … is likely to doubt its ability to ever do any good in the future.” You might as well commit suicide if you are only capable of appreciating only your mistakes and can't recognize the good you've done. Every society has done despicable things, but no society has produced as much good in so many different fields as the west. We have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of when you compare the plusses and minuses of every society.
