1) so that justifies the genocide, i guess.
2) Personally, i find your current independence to be a vapor; and yet i acknowledge that wheat come up with tares, and all work for good in the end, so please don't take me too seriously there. I mostly desire to lob grenades at the complacent, and complicit.
3) Again, your civilization has become a pox--as all do, satan being in charge and all--and whether it started as evil or not depends simply on ones pov. Manifest Destiny is a poor mandate, i think. Personally, i believe we were meant to manifest the lesson of 1Sam8. I will note that--as we are now firmly in the Decadence stage of a society--Countries come and go, but the nation remains, historically speaking. America also did great things, no doubt.
