***If your “cure” is so wonderful, why are all your previous patients dissolving in disunity and disbelief?***
The truth is often a bitter pill. The Reformers turned turning their back on the truth went back to Rome in theology. For some reason they think that a works based gospel is more comforting. Nevertheless, the Lord has still reserved for himself those of us who will not bow our knee to any other than the Lord.
But, before the great movement of the Reformation ran out of steam, we birthed this little nation called the United States. And, we are reviving and coming alive once again.
And, no matter our numbers, we stand with the Lord, which makes us the majority.

We don't claim them; don't blame their treason to your "Gospel" on us. Maybe it simply doesn't work and simply doesn't make sense and simply can't last, so they turned to something else.
Have you considered that?

We birthed a little something called "modern Western Europe," without which you'd be speaking Chinese. And it was Catholic Europeans who got here first.
But neither of us should make an idol of our past accomplishments.
And, we are reviving and coming alive once again.
I don't see it. All you can do is to undermine the simple faith of people who love God in their own way and turn them to the "gospel" of every man being his own Pope.
And we already know how that ends.
You want a real challenge? Re-convert Scotland or the Netherlands. I'll even be rooting for you in that endeavor.

The multiplicative proclivities shown by the religions of men are truly astounding.

You can’t tell the players, if you don’t have a program.
And, no matter our numbers, we stand with the Lord, which makes us the majority.

And Old Reggie is correct. There is the hope, promise and future of America, born out of the Godly principles of the Reformation, and there is the sloth and decadence and inertia of Old Europe and South America.
