Did you know (Concerning Christianity in the USA) ?

Question

As you walk up the steps to the U.S Supreme Court building you can see near the top a row of the world's lawgivers. In the center is Moses, and he is holding the Ten Commandments.

As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, the two huge oak doors have the Ten Commandments engraved on the lower portion of each door.

There are Bible verses etched in stone all over the Federal Buildings and Monuments in Washington, D.C.

Congress has paid chaplains with tax dollars since 1789 to open sessions with prayer and to provide spiritual guidance to members and their staff upon request.

The very first Supreme Court Justice, John Jay, wrote a letter to clergyman Jedidiah Morse stating:
"Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers."

How, then, have we gotten to the point that Christianity is the evil religion, to be fought against at every turn, when it was Christianity that this nation was founded upon?

Answer 1

because now people want to have affairs, get divorces and have abortions. The church is against it.

Plus if they are homosexual they arnt suported bu the church when they have a gay marrage.

But the real reason is that this country is too politicaly correct. You cant say God in schoool because it will insult the buddist who sits next to you. YOu cant say prayers in public unless it is at a memorial service.

Basically people dont like christianity anymore because it wont let them have fun.

Answer 2

Where once Christianity was universally accepted as the only way to be, in recent centuries people are daring to question it and the behavior of many of its followers, and are finding something wanting. It's cultural evolution.

…a long habit of not thinking a thing WRONG, gives it a superficial appearance of being RIGHT, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason.
--Thomas Paine, Common Sense

He said it of obedience to monarchy, but it applies to many more things.

Answer 3

In the view of physical science, every observable phenomenon can be explained on the bases of the known laws of nature or laws yet to be discovered. If there is a phenomenon that we cannot understand or explain with our present state of knowledge, then we have to await future discoveries and developments. The fact that we do not understand an event or a phenomenon should drive us to seek an understanding of it. There are no mysteries in science; everything has a scientific explanation.

Answer 4

there is not any longer something approximately LaVeyan Satanism that ought to pose a threat the the baby's actual or psychological wellness, so I doubt a choose could be to any extent further possibly to intervene in this occasion than the Christian one you point out. Frankly, i think of as quickly as a baby can cogently articulate their motives for no longer wishing to attend worship amenities, they should not be forced to realize this, in spite of which faith is in contact.

Answer 5

did you know to left of moses is the Greek pagan Solon, and to his right is Confucius?

Did you know that in article 11 of the treaty of Tripoli it says:

"As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion;" ?

USA WAS NOT FOUNDED ON CHRISTIANITY

and at the entrance to the capitol building is the pagan god, Mars

Answer 6

You show a few small questionable examples, and then you decide you know the only religion, and I am guessing the only version of it, that should be acceptable? Cute... But not earth shattering to me.

Answer 7

oh and i suppose this nation is perfect. perhaps you should study a history book that tells more than the pretty stars and stripes and America wins stories. America has extorted other countries for our own good while making it seem to our citizens that we were helping out. there is a reason that the world hates us, and it's not all jealousy. this of course is not to say that i don't love my country , because i absolutely do, but there is more to this country than we're supposed to be taught.

Answer 8

Well, it's a free country!! We can believe what we want and do what we want and try to cure things and make life a little better and Christians are trying to stop that! Well, at least some are...
