No offence to ordinary Christan Americans just as a culture.
I mean gay pride, abortion, pornography,unnecessary death penalty, agressive wars and so on

Friend, I am a Christian & an American, It seems like you think The USA is the only one that has these sins in their country, & we put them on a ship or Plane & transfer them to other countries, I say this humbly as I can, Satan is not & has not been only in the USA, He has always been in other Countries as well. it is true this was a Christian Country But the USA has fallen into the same kind of sin that all other nations has fallen into, Now as far as modern day Invention, Just about all modern equiptment has came from the USA, who gave the automoblie, & the Airplane, & the other modern day things. The USA, we gave all those things to other countries. Yes our culture may be different than yours, So why did any other countries ask for what we had. Yes I am against Gay & lesbain lifestyle, I am against abortion, & I am against pornography, & unnecessary death penalty, & any uneccessary war. But I am not against the Death penalty, nor am I against war. I am for The USA having the right to defend herself & we Do have the Military power to do that.

ok, i hear ya, but... you must realize that America began as a Christian nation, and unfortuantely man being what he is, sin was present and many people veered away from true Christianity until you have the mixed bag that we see in America today. So one needs to sort out the wheat from the weeds...
Many Christians are doing a lot of good around the world, like digging wells in Africa, feeding the starving, and providing medical attention to the destitute... you rarely hear about that aspect of American Christianity because the media is prejudiced against the "religious right" and tends to downplay the good they do and sensationalize the occasional Christian who plummets from grace...
So what I am saying is that I agree with you that America does export a lot of really bad stuff , but that is not the Christians' fault, for they are quietly doing good, so I disagree with you on the notion that that ALL that this nation does is evil...
For some reason God has designed it so people have free will to show their true natures in the "Land of the Free"... maybe that is so they will have no excuse at judgement day... which will surely come some day probably in the near future...

I think that Christianity is at the root cause of most problems such as wars and the death penalty. However as for equality with homosexuals, a womans right to choose, and the free speech of pornography (MY FAVORITE), these are the kinds of things that people would find in a real democracy.

Because most people in America claiming to be Christian, are fake Christians that have no real morals... look at the war in Iraq... most of the Christians in the country don't care that we killed and hurt more civilians by far in Iraq than were killed on 9/11... and they can care less than the Iraqi people had nothing to do with 9/11... that's just one of probably hundreds of examples... every country in the middle east with good morals that befriends us,,, picks up on our unmoral society... we are killing children in Africa for Diamonds and other resources... we exploit the people in South America.. we F up the world to stay on top.. so I don't know how we can call the US a Christian country.

You are misguided. America is not a Christian country, even though there are a majority of Christians here. This is not a Theocracy and there is a separation between church and state.

The US don't export much of anything these days. Everything is imported from China. Guess you haven't been to Walmart, have you?

Your right, and all the Trillions of dollars the US has given in humanitarian aid over decades should be repaid asap.

The American farmer feeds millions of starving people overseas. I don't think that is crap.
