America, Is She A Christian Nation Anymore?

Over 75 percent of us still profess Christianity in America. But, of those who claim Christianity, how many really practice their religion. The Christian symbols are, one by one, being taken from public view. Christians are too willing to turn a blind eye to the self-serving. How long will it be before there are no longer any ruminate left of the Judeo-Christian faith?

Out of all who profess that they follow the Christian faith, less than half really live their faith. Then what is the real National faith? Atheists complain they can’t stomach Christian symbols. They say that even prayer makes them want to hurl. But yet, they have a form of faith themselves. They believe that there is no God; key word ‘believes’.

The First Amendment cannot be dismissed as a part of an outdated document. And is a right for all Americans. Atheists and freethinkers in America are a minority yet their opinions are weightier then the majority. Why? Because the majority fails to use their voice and the atheists don’t. They are free to express and practice their lack of faith as they please and readily do so. So where is the Christian’s voice?

There are those who want to push their agendas and feel they are the only ones who should have any rights. Others remain passive and mindless slaves to a system that could care less whether they have any human rights or not. Other religions are unafraid to speak about what they stand for but, on the other hand, a lot of Christians are under guise.

Huffingtonpost.com reported that at a press conference in Turkey, President Obama casually rebuked the old chestnut that the United States is a Judeo-Christian nation. "One of the great strengths of the United States," the President said, "is ... we have a very large Christian population -- we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values."

Do we consider ourselves a Christian Nation? As you have just read, our President says he doesn’t think of us as one. But, do you? Where is your voice? Where do you stand in the scheme of things? Do you feel that your voice doesn’t matter? Well, it does matter. Don’t succumb to intimidation and harassment from others; you need to make yourself heard loudly.

And what about the silent Jihad happening in America? Because Americans, for the most part, want to give everyone a chance to experience the American dream, we too often close our eyes to the aggressive agenda of Islam. Does Islam embrace the idea that Muslims can 'take Jews and Christians as friends'? No, it considers Christians and Jews as infidels. And in their book infidels must be destroyed. So how can we join forces with them to right injustices and right the wrongs for Human rights?

Wake up America! Where are you voices? Don’t let it fade into the background! Be on the forefront speaking and upholding your rights. Because, if you are not careful and you are not watching, you will wake one morning to be a slave to a Godless regime. As I write this there are those who are working hard to do that very thing.

World net Daily reported that Obama may put Americans under world judges' power. International Criminal Court issues are focus of delegation to The Hague. Obama has dispatched a delegation to The Hague to explore issues involving the United States' possible participation in the International Criminal Court; an organization critics charge could be used to prosecute Americans under international legal standards for actions that are not crimes in the U.S.

The concern was that the ICC doesn't recognize many of the U.S. Constitution's provisions protecting defendants in criminal trials, such as the right to a trial by jury and protections against double jeopardy.

"The meeting at The Hague is also in preparation for the Rome Statute's review in May of 2010," Schaefer said. "Mr. Rapp is there to find out if (the 108) member states are interested in amending the document to address U.S. concerns. Ambassador Rapp is there to learn how substantial the barriers to the U.S. joining the court actually are."

We, as Christians, will not be recognized nor will our concerns. We will not even be a small voice because our voice will be drowned out by the beat of a world focused on complete and total control of its citizens. Rome Statutes are communistic at best. Don’t expect any compassion or protections.

Are we a Christian Nation? I dare say, I don’t think we are any longer. We once were more watchful and jealous over our freedoms, but no more. We let down our guard and laid away every weapon in our quest to be fare. Is it too late? Only history will bare the truths of our era.
