Yes Christian Warrior. And then when all the atheists, Jews, and Muslims are dead or converted or moved out you'll start looking to subjugate or destroy the Christian groups that aren't Christian enough for your own tastes. Its a dangerous road your traveling that leads to nothing but ugly.
Besides, if you want a "Christian country", and Christian nations have existed, it is most certainly NOT America. America was founded upon the ideas of individualism and selfishness that fly in the face of true Christianity.
PS- The East was both civilized and Christianized BEFORE the West. Think: Greece and Palestine. Read some history books, friend. Honestly.

What makes the United States any more Christian than any other country? Think about it- we have some of the same atrocities going on here as do other countries. There are believers everywhere. Where is the proof that all of these modern "niceties" were created by Christians?
Don't forget, the US has her on terrorists groups too( you know back in the late 1800's early 1900's with the sheets covering their heads and burning crosses, and putting the strange fruit on the trees in the south).
Also, remember that Christianity began in the Middle East!

Lord help us! Your ignorance about history and invention is profound!:
The ancient Egyptians invented the Calender in 4241 BCE.
Christians who taught civilization to the non-western world?
I would like for you to read "Math For The Millions" by Wm Hogpen around 1930 vintage who gives the credit for the western education to the rightful pioneers. He says they were not Greek in a racial sense and they (the Europeans) did not know "In the beginning God Created" anything. He said these are the people who we owe for our education.
And another work that states "In time we(the europeans) would have created our own civilization. But we were discovered: a stranger came into our midst. He came from Africa.He came from Egypt. And the author then goes on to tell you everything that you owe to ancient Egyptian civilization.
And then later on we see Europe in the dark ages. And the African moors invade Spain. And the written accounts of that experience said that the moors brought the knowledge of medicine to Europe. Establish Universities. Brought a high civilization to Spain. One written account said the Spanish rarely took bathes and the Muslims forced them to cleanup more. The sciences were taught in Spain under the Moors. And all of Europe therefore mowes this enlightenment to Muslims!
So what the hell are you talking about. Our country being an enlightened civilization promotes religious freedom! Dont you remember our history of why some Europeans came to America? To practice their religion without fear or intimidation.
So dont try to revise history - and dont get high and mighty and forget whence your education originates.

Why are people like you allowed to beat the proverbial dead horse?
The U.S. is NOT "Christian." It is the land of FREEDOM. That means that one is free to NOT be Christian. It is not about submission.
Geez ... get over it already.
And if you studied some history, you would see that some civilizations which were much more civilized than our - namely, Hellenic Greece, the birthplace of democracy - were not Christian.
You might also learn something about our country as well - like it's not a Christian theocracy. I'd suggest that you start with the U.S. Constitution - particularly the First Amendment.

Freedom of religion,separation of church and state and an overall understanding that all people are created equal under god.No matter who your god is.There are hundreds of religious texts in the world.I was unaware that the entire world has come to the conclusion that one alone was correct.Guess CNN didn't air that one so I missed it.This is the same kind of reasoning that radical Muslim groups use to justify killing innocent people all over the world.I wouldn't want to live anywhere else and never judge anyone because of race,color or ethnic background.That is ignorant.That by the way is the correct spelling for ignorant so you know for next time.

Because this is a FREE country, where people have choices to believe what they want to. Pardon me for disagreeing, but America is not based on the Bible. America is based on what the founding father's wanted all along, FREEDOM from religion! They came here and created our country with laws (The Constitution) that seperated the Government from religion. The Government has NO say in what religion anyone here practices, and my personal belief is that NO government should. That's MIND control. Here in America, we are blessed with the FREEDOM to choose.

To be fair, while the founders of the country were the puritans arriving on their ship, the real thinkers of the country were Christian in a sense that is VERY different from what christians of this day and age are. Ben Franklin, one of the greatest minds of America (if a bit of a selfish pig), believed in the "God as a clockmaker" idea, which states that god created the universe and is now "just letting it run" and doesn't interfere. But apparently, my mother felt that this wasn't christianity. Perhaps she's wrong.
Point is, there are plenty of people in America that are a vital part of it that don't believe in Christianity. I'm one of them. If you want to take us on, you're welcome to try, but we're not going down without a fight: extremists and the intolerant won't be able to take everyone down, so you're better off just putting up with us instead of trying to form your "perfect society."

I was going to answer this without any sort of prejudice whatsoever and try to answer in a manner in which you could understand. But then I figured that whatever I said you probably would not listen to anyhow. This country was formed for religious tolerance. Hmm..didn't you learn in school that our forefathers made a provision for "freedom of religion and the freedom from religious persecution" for us in this great country. I fight for this country and what it stands for to include the freedoms and liberties we all hold so dear. I hope that you might show more tolerance in the future toward non-christians that live in our great country as the tolerance we show others is what makes this country so great. We do not involve ourself in wars based upon religion in the U.S. unlike over 60% of the nations in the world that are currently involved in a direct battle with their fellow man based upon a religious disagreement.
Instead, we involve ourselves in war based upon our desire for cheaper oil, cheaper natural resources, diplomatic pressuring, and fear-based politics.
Good luck on your way towards some sort of enlightenment as I hope you find it.

Funny how ancient history's biggest and most successful civilizations were not Christian. For example Egypt, Aztlan, Rome......well Rome started out as pagan and was pagan for the most part, then converted to Christianity and soon after it fell....... So explain to me again how a civilization HAS to be Christian?
I'm not anti-Christian, but I don't see how cristianity has to do with civilization, whether anciant or moddern
