Is Syria a Muslim country?




Three-quarters of all Yanks are Christians, meaning there are three times as many Christians in Yankeeland as all other religions put together.

Yankeeland was founded by Christians on Christian values.

It has a Christian heritage stretching back since it was founded; a Christan heritage which makes up the very fabric of the nation, as is evidenced in the half a million churches dotted around the country.

Yankeeland is a Christian nation and always has been.
Yankeeland was founded on feudal principle learned from their British overlords. They may not have an official monarchy but they still have a ruling class, a working class and a poor class. Only the titles have been changed to protect the guilty.

I feel sorry for the Yanks being run by a boring, run-of-the-mill republic.

I'm pretty sure the history of North America is based on what the Bible says you shouldn't be doing. Yes that applies to all of Europe also so the fruit didn't fall far from the tree. Those methods are still in use.

He still hasn't gotten over the fact the Yanks kicked their a$$es at Yorktown.

Well , many folks have lots to say about our founders. What they believed. What they said and so on and so forth. The history of this country isn't much different than any other part of civilization in regard to what the primary driving force was behind just about,,,anything. Two words. Real estate. Our founders were no different.

Once again, a topic on a CANADIAN forum, that has absolutely NOTHING to do with Canada.

No, the USA is NOT a "Christian Nation", and it never has been. There is no state religion in the USA, and we have had Christians, Jews, and Muslims in the USA since its earliest days as colonies of Great Britain.

The Constitution does not allow the government to establish any religion, or to promote any religion.

End of subject!

Well, if you comment on it, you're just encouraging more of the same.

Technically I think that last line should be 'End of my rant.'. True not all opinions are accurate but you are entitled to have one, if it's 'wrong' somebody will be happy to correct it.

Every bio ever written of Roger Williams establishes the above and ends the argument. As for the Constitution, anyone can look up my previous cites to Madison's Remonstrance.

We're run by a glorious, politically neutral monarchy with a glorious 1,000 year history.

You're run by a boring politician in a suit.

Face it - A republic is boring. And we don't have a bloody politician as our Head of State.

Islam isn't the state religion of Syria, but few would argue that Syria isn't a Muslim country.

Almost three quarters (73%) of all Yanks are Christians - 48% of Yanks are Protestants; 22% are Catholics; 2% are Mormons; 1% are Eastern Orthodox.

The USA was founded by Christians on Christian values. In fact, the USA started off as a group of English - and then British - colonies founded by Puritans, a group within the Church of England who were persecuted in England and so fled to North America where they founded Puritan colonies, which eventually became the USA (I'm sure you've heard of the Mayflower).

Christianity soaks the very history and fabric of the nation like no other religion. There are HALF A MILLION churches dotted around the USA, compared to just 3,727 synagogues; 2,106 mosques (almost double the number there were in 2000 before 9/11); a few hundred Sikh gurdwaras and a few hundred Hindu temples.

To try and argue - out of sheer desperation in the face of all evidence to the contrary, in my opinion - that the USA is NOT a Christian country is just completely and utterly LUDICROUS.

God judges individuals in that category. There isn't one place on earth that will be judged as being righteous. Push the point and the Church that is hot and cold would apply and that doesn't end so well. America has 50M evangelicans that follow a false doctrine, they won't be all that impressed with their leaders when they miss out on being included in the first group that is gathered.

He's hinting at this.
Jer. 25:9
I will summon all the peoples of the north and my servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon," declares the LORD, "and I will bring them against this land and its inhabitants and against all the surrounding nations. I will completely destroy them and make them an object of horror and scorn, and an everlasting ruin.

By the way, I have no idea what a Christian is. Our sister, Motar, has tried to explain it, but her definition leaves most denominations out.

Greetings, Brother. Christian is an individual estate. It cannot be ascribed to or claimed by any group (denomination, country, etc.)

Anybody the 2 Laws cover as they get judged on those laws. In short any Gentile in the world who has been alive since Peter preached to the first ones in Acts:10. God even gives a list of the traits that God will use when that sorting time comes in the 7 letters. If you didn't get the message before dying you miss the first gathering as that is reserved for Gentiles who did hear about God. The end up being the Shepherds in the New Earth and the much bigger crowd is the flock, nobody from mankind is missing so all of Adam and Eve's children are there. Saying otherwise is a quick way to eliminate yourself from the 1,000 year reign.
