It's not true because the United States is not populated by Hebrews (!)
It's not a close analogy because, if you're talking about people forcefully entering a land that's already occupied by somebody else, the immigrants in that scenario are the Hebrews, not the Canaanites.
Oh well, ha ha, aside from all that, you say Americans are the Chosen People regardless, because USA is the most moral country on earth? The most moral country on earth?
LS, that really doesn't work.
We have an EXTREME pro-abortion law: any mother can kill any or all of her unborn babies, at any age, at any stage of development, for any reason or for no reason at all, and our Supreme Court says that's enshrined in our Constitution. In terms of extremism, our law is second only to Communist China.
We have 400 million pornography-related web pages on the Internet (more pages of porn than we have population.) We are major, world-wide exporters of both abortion technology and pornography.
At present, an American film which states that "almost everything we were taught about Christ is false" is being gleefully distributed worldwide.
What a uniquely God-pleasing nation!
You wrote: "Oh, and don't forget, they [Mexicans] were the ORIGINAL child killers (Aztecs) in their previous incarnation."
There hasn't been Aztec human sacrifice in Mexico for more than 485 years. Since you, however, are judging nations by their previous (er) "incarnations," would you care to have typical Euro-mix Americans own up to the child-sacrifice committed by Vikings, Druids, and Franks?
Rather than stretching, tailoring, and twisting things around to fit into an elaborate but unlikely occupation-of-Canaan scenario, I think most of us know the right things to do. Individuals and churches should treat people humanely. The government should enforce the laws.
Just as the Mark Earley article very simply stated it.
My son is homeschooled, and we're in a section about the Germanic and Celtic tribes in his world history book. Today he learned about the German habit of sacrificing people to the goddess of fertility by strangling them or cutting their throat from ear to ear and them burying them in a peat bog.
I really don't think I (Celtic descendant through Ireland and Scotland) and my wife (German descendant) should have to pay for that idol worship and murder, so I'me sure not going to hold the Aztecs against the Mexicans.
Think as you wish. I think Early is a little off, and could do with a little more Bible study.
