No argument. But I still can't quite believe that "we" as a country deserve grief due to the immoral actions of some individuals. Edmund Burke made that very point, as did one of my favorite mentors, Albert Jay Nock, in "The Myth of a Guilty Nation." Otoh, Jefferson agreed with your point when he said somewhere (beware: quotation from memory :-) ), "I tremble for my country when I consider that God is just."

I would probably make the same remark in 1939 Germany. I do tend to look at it from what I think God might think I admit. It's biblical on how God sees nations. Often times I don't enter the whole equation in what I say, but be assured that 30 million babies killed since 1973 is in there.
