I would say America contains a number of solid believers, but at this point we are not truly a Christian nation as a whole. Statistics show that only 20% of Americans are in church on Sunday (or Saturday if you prefer). Few are discipled Christians who put God first. America is a big mission field that is in need of more missionaries to proclaim the good news.

You may be right.
However, you are quite probably deluded or downright batshit crazy.
Christianity has been around a long time, but the numbers of "strict" adherents is on the decline.
The meaning is obvious to anyone with a brain. This, of course, excludes you, so I will explain it to you.
People reject your narrow-minded, exclusive world-view. They would rather have no religion than follow a meaningless, self-righteous gathering of insensitive clods, such as you.
Have a nice day!
"Statistics show that only 20% of Americans are in church on Sunday (or Saturday if you prefer)."
On an issue so important as whether God rested on Saturday or Sunday, how can you be so dismissive. You better NOT go evangelizing before you get this straightened out, or you have a 50% chance of sending anyone you actually convince, on a Highway to Heck.

Man, that is good news!
Screw the missionaries.
So long as you go away when I say "Sorry, I already have a religion, or lack thereof," like Jehova's Witnesses do, I'm okay.
But you should know you're right. I put my family, friends, self, humanity, life in general, oxygen, & pretty much everything tangible WELL before God.
It's times like this that i'm glad i live in the UK, which, despite really being a 'christian state', has very few actual christians.

At best, you can't fill many on holy days. It takes a funeral of the famous or funeral as result of herendous crime to fill big one (the latter being a sign of a sickness, you don't know the deceased stay the fuck away) Most people who say they're Christian (I'm hoping) really aren't anyway.
The "good news" that we'll all end up in Hell, if we're not absolutely following the RIGHT faith, letter for letter, but not from the Bible, as only parts of it is to be read by the letter. The rest is just socialist bullshit.
Those "good news"? Thanks, but I'll manage without them.
As America was founded on "Government shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech" etc, it seems as though America was never truly a Christian Nation. Maybe you ought to move to Spain, Italy or Eire. Those are more Christian nations than America ever was. Even Sweden did have a state religion a few years back, stupid.
Constitution-wise, your country might be one of the most secular ones*... Ha ha!!!
*Maybe because it's one of the younger ones?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
