<>Actually, America is the most prominent country ever founded on Christianity. God's blessing has been upon this land and as a result, America is responsible for most of the creations and inventions of benefit to the world at large. I believe it is because we are hooked up to the Creator. Just look at Moslem or Buddist or Hindu and pagan god societies. Have they contributed anything comparable in inventions to humanity? You may say "Well, look at Japan and electronics." However, Japan largely has taken American technology and improved or worked with it to bring their products to the world. Most of the beneficial inventions of humanity have come from America or christian Euroean countries. For example, the Gutenburg printing press. No, we would be doing these backward Moslem countries an eternal service by bringing christianity to them.

I know that some here will bring up the crusades and other christian blunders, but those were not justified by christian biblical teaching. They were men acting apart from the leading of The Holy Spirit.

We must not be ashamed to embrace our christian heritage as Americans. Because of that heritage, the world has greatly benefited.

By gosh, you're right. Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and Albert Einstein were all devout Christians.
