THE DEBATE ABOUT AMERICA BEING A "CHRISTIAN NATION"
Some, not all, foretell this proclamation who are from a different cut of the cloth, apart from the indigenous people who were brought to America via slave ships, beginning in the 1600's.
The rhetoric of the narrative utterance that is being proclaimed to be the 'truth' of the Insights Intel regarding America being a 'Christian Nation' is farther from the 'truth'; thus, it is totally void of anything closely related to either Empathy or Compassion. If and when a place is known as a "Christian Nation," it should have some semblance of Empathy & Compassion. "These things should remain: Faith, Hope, Charity, & Love. But the greatest of these is 'Love ' (1 Corinthians 13:13 NIV).
If a place is privileged to be known as a "Christian Nation":
>It would not have crippled, mis-treated or killed 20 million Native Americans
>It would've never thought of being the holders of other people, different from them, whom they used as Slaves
>A Christian Nation would've perpetrated a Civil War where, in excess of 500 thousand people died in a fight to own the right to others different than themselves.
> Furthermore, during the era of Jim Crow on Antebellum Plantations, in the Southern States, where cotton was king, and where indigenous people known as sharecroppers did all the work in the cotton as free laborers. No wages were paid to the sharecroppers. I experienced firsthand exposure to those tumultuous times in the South of Louisiana during the late 1940's up through the mid-1960's
