What are "American Values"?

Jeff Yu said:
Which ones?
I don't know, you quoted from one time period a few elite men quite removed from those who built this country into a great power...
 
You're right. The slaves built this country and now the illegal immigrants are building it. Those elites were the architects. Right now, we have to captains.

BTW, thank you for correcting my typo. Officially in 1956.

Legal European immigrants, mostly Christian, built America to its greatest heights...

Today the descendents of freed slaves and illegal immigrants are tearing this country down and are succeeding thanks to the milquetoast liberals that have taken control over the country.

Quite a big change in eras. The 1960s were not at all good times for God in America. Or on earth. Mr. Johnson was too busy selling away the country at that time.

Absolutely right! We need a return to good ol' traditional American values! Back to enslaving the blacks, evicting the browns, and reinstituting the good old days of segregation in the 1950's, back before damn liberals like Martin Luthor King messed things up. :rolleyes:

As for Christians building America to it's greatest heights, need I mention that 40% of all of America's Nobel Prize winners were Jewish, that the American university producing the most Nobel prizes, UC Berkeley, also happens to be the most liberal, that the country's railroads were built with the backs of the Chinese, or that the most decorated military unit in US military history was a Japanese American one? :rolleyes:

It is late in the night here but this seems like Racism/10
 
That was actually painful to read Inqvisitor. Is this you speaking or you behind the internet?

I do hope hes joking. As he is reffering to blacks as "freed slaves ruining our country" in this day and age. :shake:

yup those them liberals sure do control the US senate, congress, supreme court, media and lets not forget, the White House. God I can't wait to get that liberal president out of the White House.

What are all of you going on about? All I am stating is the reality about who turned America into the great country that it was. If we have say, the illegals to thank, why is their home country of Mexico on the verge of third-world status to this day?

Dare I say, the Nobel Prize nonsense sounds more like organized nepotism than anything else...

Yes the Chinese worked on the railroads in America. Thank them the next time you ride that old iron horse. What is the point to all this?

Is the fact that European Christians were not just evil colonialist warmongers who destroyed true civilization so painful to all of you racists out there? Political correctness is getting more and more ridiculous.

I didn't say that but I would be perfectly willing to undo the damage of slavery and sponsor black families being reunited with their tribes back home if that is the issue. Slavery was a heinous crime which everyone has by now paid for tenfold.

I have to agree to a certain extent. The southern states, which used predomantly african slaves, were much poorer and undersdeveloped than the nothern states, that didn't have slavery.

I believe this is still the case, but I'm not certain.

Very true, indeed. Who would miss that entire liberalist cesspool that is Washington DC? Especially with that traitorous scum president we have...

That has more to do with industries being in the north and farming in the south.

Anyhow, California has a bigger economy then most nations despite their huge percentage of hispanics, asians and illegals.

EDIT: California's GDP would be ranked 6th in the world. Just ahead of UK and France, behind China, Japan, India and Germany. Considering they have half the population of UK and France, they're doing okay.
 
Question for Inq-
Who, in your definition, constitutes "christians"? Is it just Catholics? Prodestants? Mormons? Jehovah's Witnesses? Baptists? Non-denominationalists?

The Catholic Faith is the only perfect and complete Christianity. Eastern Orthodox are schismatic Christians. Protestantism is imperfect Christianity due to heresy in one form or another.

Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses are not Christian. Baptists (and Evangelicals) are more extreme versions of Protestants. There is no such thing as "non-denominational." If you are not part of the One Church, you are part of one of thousands of heretical sects that have sprung up over the years.
 
What about the Ethiopean or Armeanian churches? They are older than Catholisism.

Which ones? Coptic churches are heretical and non-Christian.

And they are not older than Catholicism, which was founded in A.D. 33.
 
I'd argue with you, but there are people on this board that know more about this than I do... check the History Board and post a thread if you wanna make that claim.
