America is really devil?

[Anonymous]

If you do down to Washington DC, you won’t find anything Christian instead you will see Egyptian sculpture and Greek style building, it’s strange thing when you think of Americans are Christian majority. I mean I talked to someone who move to Canada told me that he moved to Canada because America is devil. Really considering children having sex since they are early teen and all the media shows sex sex sex. I also heard about illuminate. They worship Satan and they control politicians and economy. I mean the truth is America is not a Christian country and Satan worshipers occupy the powers. What do you think?

Um, Egypt has a very strong Christian presence, especially among the native Copts; they're nowhere near the majority, but it's not like they're unheard of. And Greece is the heir (well, one of the heirs) of the Byzantine Empire; they're as Christian as you can get, outside of Rome.

More to the point, architecture is not religious. Buildings designed by a person of a given faith may reflect that faith's aesthetics, and even its specific practices (you're not going to see minarets on Catholic-designed office building, unless the architect was in a prankish mood), but they don't affect its morality.

As to DC, well...

nothing...

religious...

here.

Yes, the population of the USA is mostly Christian (though not strict about it), but the government of the USA is vehemently secular. Not only is this more pragmatic (as religion has little to do with governance anyway) and more moral (since it's unethical for a government to be anything other than neutral regarding religion), it's also more accurate to Christianity, since Jesus Himself said to give unto Caesar what was Caesar's.

I would strongly suggest you take a look at the Bible (which you can read online for free here: https://www.usccb.org/offices/new-american-bible/books-bible) and see what Jesus had to say about sex (hint: it's a grand total of 2 things over four gospels); it clearly wasn't a particularly big issue for Him, at least in comparison with more important moral issues. Do we have lots of teenagers having sex well before they should here? We certainly do- but that's not about the Devil; that's about biology. Don't blame external supernatural forces for things that happen entirely within your own body.

Also: sex isn't evil: please remember that Christianity and the faith of the Romani are two VERY different religions; we don't claim that the body is wrong or immoral or bad in any way, just temporary and less important than the spiritual.

Satan, or rather, what Satan offers, is staggeringly popular here, but the Devil is a different story- temptation and evil are NOT the same thing- and wickedness among the powerful is true is every last corner of the globe. Is our leadership composed largely of entrenched rich sybarites, who hedonistically indulge their every minor whim while the masses go hungry? Actually, no- it's mostly entrenched rich sybarites who devote all their time and effort into acquiring more money and status for the sake of acquiring more money and status; they don't even get the joy out of it that an African warlord or a European dictator does. But they're no more or less moral than rulers anywhere.

The devil is everywhere... You can't run away... You have to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. Hold the line.

In terms of postmodernism every established culture has to be questioned and suppressed, while foreign cultures need to be glorified. It's only question of time until it causes cultural void and radicalization.

On matters of faith, in order to include everyone and offend no one, America stands for nothing. Sad.

'Those who stand for nothing will fall for anything.'

[Guy13]

Mostly accurate. There's a reason that some in both Asia and Muslim world refers to America as Great Satan

[Sparks32]

America or big Satan is taking in to many muslims. The middle east is big satan to me the way they disregard human rights as they do.
