I think we acted pretty "Un" Christian-like on our way to the top...

The U.S. has done a lot of things that are very un-Christian - but it has also done some remarkable things that no other country ever has. We are the most giving nation in history. We respect every individual's rights. We have a system of jurisprudence that is the best so far designed by mankind. We are a nation of opportunity where someone can go from impoverished to riches regardless of their 'class' in society. We are tolerant of each other and have lived together with many different cultures and beliefs with very little aggression toward each other - yes there is some, but comparatively speaking, it's very little when you think of how many people are aggressive versus the population count. We are raised to respect others and love our neighbors - not always true in other countries. We have a lot going for us. However, we are now in a downward spiral, we are deleting God and His commands from our society little by little. I think we will probably go the way of the great Roman Empire fairly soon if we don't stop it now.

No... we'd still be the most hated.
The rest of the world still thinks we're a bunch of self-righteous assholes.
