This is not meant to start another for or against preterism debate. It's just a comment/observation on the future of this country.

Sam,
Is it patriotic blasphemy to say that the only comparison I see to America in the Biblical end times is Babylon?
I love my country, but what is said of Babylon after it falls would apply to no other country as well as it could apply to modern day America. I don't think that fall will hapen before the Rapture though.
I say again, if it wasn't for Christians, there would be no America.
