Blessed is that nation whose God is The Lord. - Psalm 33:11

To those who doubt that G-d has blessed the United States of America I offer this thought.

In the late 1700s two nations embraced instituted a Republic. One founded its laws on its faith in G-d. The other founded its laws in its faith in human enlightenment.

300 years later one has had a consitent history of progress. The other is a mess.

Shalom.

Well, the US founded it's laws on the principles of the Enlightenment, with a legal system with a basis stretching back to the pagan Saxon common law system.

Correction. One is the greatest success of government "of the people, by the people, for the people" ever seen in human history. The other is made up of "cheese-eating surrender monkeys" who delusionally think that they actually matter in the grand scheme of things.
