Did God inspire the US Constitution?
I'm a Christian too and a big fan of America.

But don't you think it's a tad pretentious to suggest that the Declaration of Independence, US Constitution, Bill of Rights etc were somehow God-given?

According to the Bible God's "chosen people" were the Jews, not the Americans.

I sometimes hear right-wing wacko preachers on radio or TV denigrating Canada and Europe as "socialist" and somehow inferior to America with its God-given "rights".

I'm all for patriotism but "gimme a break"!

In any case, most countries have freedom of religion, of speech, etc, and they didn't all have to slaughter an indigenous race to get it?
