Secondly, I never claimed America was better in the past or not. I simply agreed with the viewpoint that many Christians espouse that America used to be a Christian nation.
Thirdly, whether it was a Christian nation or not, it is not one today.
Lastly, I never called for a return to a Christian nation (and even if I did, I certainly wouldn't call for a return of slavery, women's suffrage, etc. as well). I called for a return to Christian roots. Back to the teachings of Jesus where we are to LOVE our enemies, to turn the other cheek, etc.
I commend you for trying to lead by example.
