Christian Nation

I’m not sure if I understand what it is that they are trying to get at.
God gave men the responsibility of governing.
God gave men the responsibilities of following His commandments.
The founders of the United States recognized that if the country was not governed by people who follow God, a nation cannot be governed rightly.
To say that the Bible would be used as a constitution is to apply something directly where it is not meant to be applied.
Turn the other cheek, is a great example of this. If a nation were to say “bomb us again, it’s the Christian thing for us to take it,” the nation would be guilty of not caring for its own and ought to be considered “worse than an infidel,” not faithful to its own people.
Is there such a thing as a Christian nation? There can be if the people who govern it are governing themselves as Christians. Forcing others to forgive, show mercy, love their enemies, etc. these are not the things that laws are made of. They are for self-governance and not national governance.

The Absurdity of a Non-Christian Democracy.

Why?

Behold the Democrat party. They say others are trying to suppress the vote, while stuffing ballot boxes with phony ballots that suppress the effect of legitimate votes.

Why not require proof of United States citizenship in order to vote in California? Answer, the reign of terror might end!
