now you're just making up. Germany, Canada, Italy, Japan, France, Britain, Sweden, etc. are all secular countries. People in those countries aren't defined by the ideological beliefs and their faith in God. America is unique in that regard.
America's education system is deteriorating because its not a priority to a majority of Americans...yet.
right, because a majority of Americans are religious and think stuff like evolution is straight from the pits of .
Education and religion are largely mutually exclusive. A religious population not prioritizing education isn't some weird coincidence like you're pretending it is.
I don't think that this is so cut and dry as you think it is...now you're just making up. Germany, Canada, Italy, Japan, France, Britain, Sweden, etc. are all secular countries.

Now your just stereotyping....

Religious importance (%):
Sweden, 16%
Japan, 23.5%
United Kingdom, 26.5%
France, 29.5%
Australia 32%
Germany 40.5%
Canada 42%
United States 65%
The United States is the only modern country with a majority of religious people and it's nearly a 2/3 majority.
I'm not stereotyping at all. Educated people are significantly less religious than uneducated people.
Your confusing cause and effect...some of those countries have suppressed religion, others use religious philosophical beliefs to help guide their political and business decision making...

What about countries like Niger that are dirt poor and 99% religious? Are they secretly using atheist beliefs in their political and business decision making
And I'd like to believe that there's a money tree in my backyard that gives me unlimited amounts of cash, tbh...
And I'd like to believe that there's a money tree in my backyard that gives me unlimited amounts of cash, tbh...that's too trivial! You can only believe in fantasies that nbadan doesn't view as trivial
Yet his vague fantasies of the "real 9/11 story" are apparently non-trivial enough for him to constantly bring up on a daily basis
Are you blaming religion for corrupt leadership?What about countries like Niger that are dirt poor and 99% religious? Are they secretly using atheist beliefs in their political and business decision making
Corrupt leadership and religion are pretty intertwined, are they not?
Olsteen would say that you can sit around and wish for a money tree or you can make it happenAnd I'd like to believe that there's a money tree in my backyard that gives me unlimited amounts of cash, tbh...
Damn son, I read that initially as a monkey tree; maybe something capable of growing a decent center for you guys.And I'd like to believe that there's a money tree in my backyard that gives me unlimited amounts of cash, tbh...
Sometimes, but not always...
Why do you need to make it happen? Why can't god just give all of his flock a money tree?Olsteen would say that you can sit around and wish for a money tree or you can make it happen
If sometimes means almost all the time sans a few exceptions, then sure, sometimes.
Close enough with our Obama phones and tbh.
God doesn't give everything everyone wants...it does not work that way...
Why not?
Would you like me to start posting all the morally corrupt world leaders past and present who weren't particularly religious?
...because then it wouldn't be faith...
