The occupants of the boat which was about to sink with Jonah in it, were more broad minded than this. They called upon their gods and roused Jonah to call upon his. Then they drew lots (in a PAGAN ceremony, mind you) and it correctly singled out Jonah as the reason for the problem.
I say if those pagans in the boat with Jonah could be guided by God to His favor through a pagan ceremony, then we have no reason to expect that Christians can't or won't in America through a Christian proclamation. All the constitutions in the world can't stand against the Word of God, and those who would claim they do are trying to nullify the Word of God, to suppress the truth in unrighteousness, to take counsel against Him.

Amen.
And it is the grace of God that any of us are saved, not how good we consider ourselves to be.
America is blessed by God for a reason, and Christians will answer for what they do, or don't do towards that purpose. I believe that "purpose" is that the Word of God (gospel) will be preached to all the nations. Sometimes I think religious people actually think God blessed America so that they can have all the stuff, because they are good.
