If the U.S. is so blessed by God, why did he put the oil underneath the people who hate us?

God did not put oil underneath people that hate us he put everything where he wanted it and people over time moved to the areas of the world where we all are now.
Most of the area you are referring to hate us because we have something they do not have and will never have unless they are given the same thing we have and that is Freedom. They are under the strict control of a few people that want mindless slaves and maintain control through fear. Many of the Muslim countries in the middle east and elsewhere are controlled through the threat of death and the threat of having hands, arms, feet and/or legs cut off if they do not do what they are told when they are told to do it and this includes being told what to think as well.
How would you like to have to do something that you do not want to do, but if you do not do it you know you will be killed or maimed if you don't? That does not sound very good does it and yet that is how many of the people live their lives every day.
The ones that really hate us are the leaders and not the people because if the people hated us why do they want to come to this country to live if they get the chance. Once the brutal leaders were removed in Iraq the people opened up and are friendly to our troops. I have family members serving over there and they have incredible stories of how much the people really Love America but had to say and do what they were told or die.
Finally, this country is blessed by God because this is a Christian Nation. However, we are more and more slipping under the darkness of sin as more and more people lose sight of what is right and wrong and do what they want instead of what God wants them to do. When I was a kid in school we learned everything about how this country was formed and had to recite the Declaration of Independence before we could move up to the next grade. Now days none of the past is taught because some very dumb people believe something is true that is not because there is nothing in the Constitution of the United States of America which declares a separation of church and state. What it does say is found in the first Amendment which is,
Amendment I (1791)
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
So many scream and cry if their free speech is messed with but listen to something that does not exist and never take the time to see if it is really true. All of these things are part of the reason why people hate America, including some hateful ignorant people that have the gall to call themselves Americans. Think for yourself and find out what America is all about. Dig into history and see what really happened in the past because if we forget the past and lose sight of how God formed this Nation for Him, we shall soon perish as a Nation and join the ranks of those that are killed and/or maimed at the whim of what ever two cent dictator which has fooled enough people to take us over.

The U.S. was blessed by God because of the Christians who came here. That blessing is not irrevocable. The only nation promised the favor of God on a permanent basis is Israel...over there where all the oil is. Can you truly not imagine divine blessings aside from oil? That's equivalent to, "If my husband loves me, why doesn't he take unicycling lessons?" It's not a logical question, and cannot be logically answered.

I don't believe in god, but consider this, if you must; Imagine what life would be link in those countries if they didn't have the money the got from selling oil? I mean you think it's bad now? Sheesh. Besides, the US does have oil, in Texas and Alaska most notably.
ARG! Biomimetik, I can't believe you're still around. NO ONE WANTS TO READ FIVE PAGES OF CUT AND PASTED CRAP. Trust me.

TO WHOM MUCH IS GIVEN, MUCH IS REQUIRED. YES THE U.S. IS BLESSED AND THEY HAVE MUCH MORE THAT EVERYONE ELSE. BUT GOD PUT IT, THE OIL, THERE TO TEST THE PRESIDENT AND THE PEOPLE OF USA TO SEE HOW THEY WOULD TREAT OTHER COUNTIES BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY HAVE. THINK ABOUT IT. THESE PLACES LIKE IRAQ & IRAN ECT. WHO HAVE OIL AMERICA SOMETIMES COME OFF TO BE A BIT HEAVY HANDED TOWARDS THEM. I KNOW THAT THEY MEAN WELL AND I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST AMERICA - IT S THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD AND I HAVE FAMILY THERE. BUT USA HAS TO REALISE THAT NO MATTER HOW THEY TRY TO HELP OTHER COUNTIES, THE OTHER COUNTIES WILL ALWAYS FEEL RESENTMENT TOWARDS THEM, AND NO MATTER THAT AMERICA THINKS ITS HELPING - OTHER COUNTRIES WILL ALWAYS THINK THEY ARE "BUTTING IN" AND IN TURN THEY WILL BE UNGRATEFUL TO AMERICA. SO DON'T SAY THAT THE PEOPLE HATE AMERICA BUT ITS JUST THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE WAYS AND CULTURE OF THE USA SO WHEN THE US TRIES TO HELP IT SEEMS TO BE "BUTTING IN" TO THEM (IE. THE OTHER COUNTIES) BUT TO THE US, ITS JUST TRING TO BE HELPFUL.

Israel was Gods chosen land, but they refuse to believe that Jesus is the mesiah, but The Lord will come back for them. And yes America is blessed, we have freedom of religion, speech etc.

God does not bless the US... He renders unto Ceasar what is Ceasers. Religion and Politics are separate things....
Oil dependancy is our fault... not Gods

You think he put it there within the last 50 years? ok then...
...not to mention that if you thought at all about God and what he wants for us, you would realize oil is not at all necessary for our survival or our ability to live according to his wishes.
... and besides, who's fault is it that everyone hates the USA?
