Except that America's history and founding is grounded in Christian principles and with the Creator named even in our founding documents. While the "Ivy League" of Colleges and Universities were started by Christians.
Sex isn't America's religion. Sin may be rampant in the world today. That does not mean God has been replaced by phallus and sex idolatry.
Some. Not all. But at the same time, they all derived their principles of governance from the Bible (directly or indirectly). Deism does not reject God, but simply indicates that God is not involved in the affairs of men after creation.Apparently, the Founding Fathers, were Diest.

deism
noun
1. belief in the existence of a God on the evidence of reason and nature only, with rejection of supernatural revelation (distinguished from theism).
Matthew 5:39 King James Version (KJV)
39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
That's Pure Fantasy. A Truly Christian Nation has never existed anywhere at anytime. Every Nation in history for over 2,000 years has made a rational calculation, that if they turn the other cheek and offer the other also, they would soon cease to be a Nation.

Deism
Deism (/ˈdiːɪzəm/ DEE-iz-əm [1][2] or /ˈdeɪ.ɪzəm/ DAY-iz-əm; derived from Latin "deus" meaning "god") is the philosophical position that rejects revelation as a source of religious knowledge and asserts that reason and observation of the natural world are sufficient to establish the existence of a Supreme Being or creator of the universe.

I don't think we should attempt to read God's mind when it comes to such detail. It would have been better to just say "it is because of sin" and leave it at that.
Let's make things clearer for the readers, so that there is no misunderstanding. United States was founded by Satanic Illuminati Freemasons and is and always has been a Devil's Paradise. Elohim/God is in total control of this Satan's/Devil's Paradise. Is United States a British Colony?
Illuminati
The Illuminati[1] (plural of Latin illuminatus, "enlightened") is a name given to several groups, both real and fictitious. Historically, the name usually refers to the Bavarian Illuminati, an Enlightenment-era secret society founded on 1 May 1776. The society's goals were to oppose superstition, obscurantism, religious influence over public life, and abuses of state power.

As has been said already, not all the founders were Deists.
And if any government of any nation followed this rule: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also, they would cease to be a free nation. Because their enemies that would take advantage of the passivity and failure to respond to aggression against a people, would believe the government of the people did not care for them, or the potential to be conquered by an enemy.
I'd suggest you research the founding of America after you maybe realize I did not say America is a Christian nation.
Yes, we know gluttony is a sin, but ask any Christian what is gluttony. I bet you'll get a reply like, "you know those people who are so big they have to cut down the wall to get them out, that's gluttony." No pastor in his right mind would preach on food addiction as being a sin just before the congregation goes to chow down at their favorite restaurant. I don't smoke, I certainly don't think it's a good thing to do, but I don't know as I'd label it as sin. I don't drink, I don't agree with drinking, but I don't think a person who has a drink has sinned. Now if you drink till you are buzzed, I believe that to be wrong. Just saying, if one thing is a sin we need to call everything out, gossip, food addiction, alcohol etc. and preach on those things too.
I have to get signing off here for the moment, but just wanted to post this before I forget to come back and do so later......
while skimming through this thread there is one thing that keeps coming to mind.......
Ecclesiastes 1:9...…...
(just gonna leave it at that for now..... if I think about coming back to expand, I will.....)
Your assessment is not very accurate. We need to bring the truth to light to the best of our ability.Let's make things clearer for the readers, so that there is no misunderstanding. United States was founded by Satanic Illuminati Freemasons and is and always has been a Devil's Paradise. Elohim/God is in total control of this Satan's/Devil's Paradise.

well Kayla, and I am not taking sides here but just in reference to your post above, some people could really stand to hear some preaching on eating too much and yes food can become an addiction, or too much alcohol but absolutely preaching against gossip and putting a stop to it would go a long long way to creating a far more Christian atmosphere in church than what most seem to have now
and again, just responding to your post and not taking sides with anyone
gossip, IMO, is one of the main sins of Christians and I think one of the reasons Christians do not get their prayers answered
Unfortunately I too have seen and experienced “Busy Bodies” in the pews. Clicks can form and there can be that us against them mentality. This should not be occurring but it does. I for one am in favor of rebuking when these actions are apparent. With love of course which not always easy to do. Praise be to God for the Holy Spirit to guild our emotions.The church I grew up in had a couple that had a terrible habit of gossiping. No pastor wanted to deal with it because they were a couple that basically ran the church. She was an excellent cook and organizer and they were that "go to" couple. But they had lethal tongues and caused more hurt and drama in the church. They would invite people to church, get them attending church then turn on them and gossip. I don't know how much damage they did with their tongues. So sad because otherwise they would have been an asset to the church.
According to our Teacher, nothng, nothing by entering into the boy corrupsts. However what is kept in the heart, if it is evil will produce evil. Smoking is not a sin, but the habit has its own punishment.
Now we may know why they're so hostile toward America. We left.dude says he resides in jolly ole England
of course that nation has always been a paragon of virtue and Christianity![]()
