Unless he is one of those who think Catholics are not Christians, he is surely wrong about the USA no longer being a Christian majority country. Evangelical preachers like Todd Friel and Ray Comfort think that Catholicism is not Christian because it teaches a works and faith gospel, whereas they believe in a salvation by grace alone doctrine. Ray Comfort's channel is full of anti-Catholic videos, one of them is titled "Catholics Come to Christ After Hearing This". I guess maybe not. |

There are entire denominations that oppose Christmas. Jehovah’s Witnesses for one. The Puritans who established America were VERY opposed to ANY Catholic or Anglican celebrations and intentionally built a structure on Xmas just to own da libz - err - papists. Other non-christmassy Christians:
Seventh Day Adventist Church Mennonites Amish
Church of God Christian Congregation Churches of Christ Independent Baptists Oneness Pentecostals Armstrongites
True Jesus Church

And we were never a Christian country! Of course you were and still are. Don't be ridiculous. The state is and hopefully will forever remain secular. The country is Christian. It was founded by Christians and the overwhelming majority of its population since the very beginning has always been and still is Christian. You are wrong. |

With such a compelling argument, that is me convinced! |

It was founded by Christians and the overwhelming majority of its population since the very beginning has always been and still is Christian. To say we're a Christian country simply because of those things is just redefining "Christian country" way down. It would be like my deciding the public high school in my town is a "Christian school" just because most of the faculty and student body are Christians. The label of "Christian" becomes meaningless. To quote America's most public face of Christianity of the 20th century, Billy Graham, when asked if America is a Christian country: "No, we're not a Christian country. We've never been a Christian country. We are a secular country by our Constitution in which Christians live and have a voice." |

Very similar to how Biden is a "complete vegetable"/"mastermind criminal and warlord", so it is with the USA and Christianity. We are a "Christian Nation" when it serves one agenda, and then the USA is also a nation of "godless commies" when it serves *that* agenda. And never the twain shall meet. |

It’s like saying because America has majority White population, therefore it is a White nation. |

Why are some people so obsessed with telling other people how they should live their lives? Sadly, that's the way that some people earn a living. Yes... General. :P |

Christmas is a national holiday because of its cultural significance, not its religious content. Jewish person, a rabbi to be specific, once told me he will never enter any Jew’s home with a Christmas tree in it. I told him the Christmas tree has nothing to do with Christianity. |

I live in the pagan liberal hell hole that is Los Angeles, and it still seems like there's a christian church of one denomination or another on damn near every corner... Where my sister lives, there are two within 300 feet of her house, one east and one west. It's nuts. Even being the majority religion, I don't see how there are enough people to fill all the churches, especially is you subscribe to the downfall of western civilization fear mongered by the right day in and day out. Can only imagine what it is like in the Bible Belt. |

It might be the most popular religion there but are they Catholic of Muslim countries or just Catholic majority or Muslim majority countries? To me a religious country either has a state religion or actively follows religious doctrine in governance. |
