Why Christians came to the land killed, raped and stole the country and says God Bless USA? Why Christians (Nazi) murdered so many Jewish people? In my country, we never say GOD BLESS "our country" only, instead we say our planet. We do not discriminate people by their faith or religion like Christians do. But now I am in the US, I have became more American as you can see from this posting.

You're right, we should not say God Bless USA...most Americans think that this is a very patriotic thing to say, when it's actually just a very mono-theist thing to say,
This statement also dismisses or laws and history of "separation of church and state" and also the idea of religious freedom...so I see it as very un-American, just very mono-theistic (Christian, Jewish, Muslim etc...)

You have been listening to the liberal press or some equally biased source.
1. Very few pilgrims raped or murdered anyone. As for stealing the country, much of the land was purchased from the natives who sold it willingly.
2 Nazis were not Christians. Naziism was a political movement, not a religious movement.
3. There is nothing wrong with saying God Bless America. The Bible tells us to pray for our nation and He will heal our land.
4. It seems you have a bad impression of Christians and Americans. I don't know why you want to live here. However, since you are here, get to know us and you might change your mind.

"Why Christians (Nazi) murdered so many Jewish people?" - Wow truly a ignorant question. Please do a bit more research.
"But now I am in the US, I have became more American as you can see from this posting" - That is hard to see. Welcome to America though please enjoy the country that Christianity built and Pluralism (Liberals) is destroying.
Every community college has English as Second Language Classes. Please take one and do some reading in one of our libraries.
Matter a fact take some teaching classes and return to your country and teach at one of the schools that was not there before the "Christians" came. Maybe some Nursing classes so that you can work at the Hospital started by the missionaries.

Nazi were not Christians
If you believe US soldiers raped women in your country, you should provide proof to US courts, they'll punish the soldiers or if they're dead already, have the president apologize.
Religion is not the reason that people do things, it's an excuse for doing what their culture dictates.
If you do not like US culture, you should return to your country and help make it stronger than US.
If you're talking about Iraq, you're probably right though - Americans should have let Iraqis kill and rape each other.
If you're talking about Japan, I suggest you talk to Chinese - they will very quickly prove that Japan deserved it many times over.

Because they are people. No matter what religion they believe in people screw up. If they believe or don't believe people screw up. You cannot look at people and base it on a religion. First of all they are going against Christianity anyway. There is a big difference in a Christian and a Christian who knows God personally. If they knew God they wouldn't do those things.

Bible Baptist Reminder,
Clarksville, Tennessee
February, 1975
On January 14 four of the faculty members of Clarksville Baptist College had the privilege to attend a debate with its issue: "RESOLVED THAT EVOLUTION IS A MORE SATISFACTORY SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION OF THE ORIGIN AND HISTORY OF LIFE THAN IS CREATION."
A crowd of 2,200 crowded into the Alumni Gym on the campus of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Over half were UT students. On the side of evolution were Drs. Schweitzer and Jones of the University while on the side of creation were Drs. Morris and Gish of the Institute for Creation Research, San Diego, California. All four men are highly recognized scientists and specialists in their fields.
It was exciting to see the creationists beat the evolutionists on their own territory without using one single Bible verse. This irritated the evolutionists and in the final rebuttal, Dr. Schweitzer played foul and violated the rules of the debate by accusing them of believing creationism only because of their religious convictions. Even the audience resented this tactic.
The irritation was further observed at the end of the debate when the voice of one of the scientists from the paleontology department was heard on the floor angrily calling out to Dr. Gish that he was "falsely misrepresenting the facts." He then challenged Dr. Gish for the written proof concerning the finding of a new problem for the evolutionists, namely, a highly complex fish fossilized with simple-celled animals. Dr. Gish calmly showed the written evidence for all to see but the hot-headed professor cried it was a forgery!
It was shocking to see the unscientific attitude of the evolutionists towards the problems of "gaps" and fossil frustrations. Their answer time and time again was that they didn't "worry" about them. Never was a serious attempt made to answer any charge that evolution was unscientific.
For the serious seeker in the crowd I must say he was exposed to more truth concerning creation than about the teachings of the theory of evolution. No doubt many went away wondering about the so-called facts they have been fed of evolution

WOW - what a convoluted and misrepresenting post this is! I can hardly even understand your grammar much less try to give a rational answer. Obviously - you haven't met all Christians or you wouldn't make these blanketed statements about what they believe, think and do - because you would know that a true Christian is none of the things you are referring to here.

You are believing a bunch of anti Christian retoric that has no supporting evidence.
Nazi's were not Christians.
Christians did not murder indians. They lived in peace with them.
