Wow, those truly are some great issues you have raised, Brian.
Who really owns America? I know the earliest Puritans paid the Indians (in-your-face not PC), but the Oklahoma Sooners sure didn't. And that always leads to the issue of reparations.
There's no denying that Americans treated the Indians like dirt in the 1800s. I believe it was the Cherokees who were set up in a Republican form of government in or around Tennessee and actually applied for statehood.
The Christian missionaries fought for them and I think it was even considered in the Supreme Court, but Andrew Jackson shamelessly drove them out. To "Old Hickory" the only good Indian was a dead Indian.
That led to the original "trail of tears", where the Cherokees were herded all the way to the Mississippi courtesy of the U.S. Army. Hundreds died on the way.
But it was the Christians who had evangelized them, discipled them, taught them a biblical form of government. In short, it was a textbook example of Mt. 28:19,20 in which their entire culture was being conformed to the Lordship of Christ. It was the humanists, led by Andrew Jackson, who destroyed the incubating Christian culture.
Then there's the question of whether or not the American Revolution was fought on biblical grounds. Were Americans following their duly elected lower magistrates (as taught by Calvin)?
Or was it just a humanistic rebellion, based on "self-evident reason" and "deriving its just power" from men rather than God, per the "Declaration." And is revolution an option today? I'll leave it for somebody else to juggle those hot potatoes.

American Revolution Set Up by: MythBuster
I fully agree with your take on the U.S Constitution that it was not a Christian document. I am offering information to show that this was all planned well in advance, and the entire American Revolution was created by an enemy to bring about this change.
I would refer you to two sites that will provide the best history to understand this in more detail.
In short I will explain. There was an island in the Caribbean called St. Eustatius, it supplied necessary arms to the revolutionaries. Without this flow of arms the revolution was impossible. The British knew about this and could have taken that island at any time, the British were under control of this same enemy. The American revolution was heavily financed by a Rothschild agent named Haym Solomon, without those funds again the revolution was impossible.
If these things are true, and they are, I then ask did you ever read about this in any school history text book? The island of St. Eustatius should be as famous as the battle at Valley Forge. Haym Solomon should be as famous as Patrick Henry, but for some reason this history is omitted, why?
The same people who orchestrated the American Revolution and devised a secular constitution are the same ones that print the school text books, and own the news media, magazines, newspapers etc.

Shedding A Light On Conspiracy by: Dennis
Thank you, MythBuster. The conspiratorial view of history is typically ridiculed by professional historians. However, Psalm 2 reveals a great conspiracy of the nations against the Lord and his Annointed, Jesus Christ.
To deny this is to deny reality and bury our heads in the sand. For example, the Masonic connections of Washington, Paul Revere and other of our founding framers are significant in this regard.
However, we must guard our attitude in these matters and beware of attributing unwarranted power to the Devil and his conspiracies. It is possible to spend undue amounts of time tracing all of the intricacies of conspiracy. Like other created things it can become an idol if we stand in awe of it.
To some extent our attitude should be like that of God in Psalm 2:4 -- "He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord scoffs at them." All God has to do is speak a word (Ps 2:5) and they will flee in terror.
As mortal men we should not take the Devil lightly, but recognize that he is able to make any headway at all only because of our disobedience to God. If we as a people were submitting to the Law of God as we should be, all of our enemies (including the great conspiracy) would soon be defeated. That is the promise of Deuteronomy 28 and many other passages.
And that is why we have set up opportunities elsewhere on this site to contribute ideas (eg model statutes based on the Bible)and other material toward that goal. I invite you and others to please contribute to these forums as well.

So Far So Good by: Anonymous
The history of the white man in America goes back 400 years - not just 200. Why are those first 200 years ignored in high school history classes?
It is now clear to me that those first 200 years were years of covenant government, which the current man-centered-government schools wish to suppress.
