Yes it is... although you or many others might not like it...
On early 18th cent the country is in a state of "Jahilliyah", (Wild wild west).
Then the civil war became a turning point for them...
Slavery had little to nothing to do with it. In Abraham said if he could obtain the same goals without abolishing the slavery, he would.
The addition of slavery to the prevailing economic issues was fuel on the pyre of the Union. This was what Robert Toombs (right) outlined in his report to the Georgia convention considering secession in 1860. They fought over a tarif first and foremost. So did they really succed in abolishing slavery? In a country where many have to work 2 jobs just to make ends meet, and few people own the home they live in and the car they drive. I would say no. Sure, they got rid of the bullship, but thats about it.
No more slavery, even Saudi Arabia has to closed down their slave market on 1962.

No they just removed the bullwhip because a new system was in place that would effectively render humankind into 2 fractions. Masters and slaves. If you are unsure which you are, no matter how much money you make, you are the later. The slaves are more in numbers by far, so its better to please them to make them do as you say. Just give them bread and cirkus...
God elevates whomever He wishes.. and punished whomever He wishes.
God will make his revelation complete although the "rejector" might not like it
I do not disagree with this. I disagree with it in the context. There is nothing elevated about any nation on the face of the earth. All are filthy, all are run by filthy people, and all was thought up in the minds of filthy people. If we really want Gods support, its time to think this whole thing all over again. Who drew those lines in the sand that we desperately call our nations? Criminals, liars, thiefing no good leeches. All systems in place in this world is little but exploitation of the poor. The difference between then and now, is that the masters have figured out how to make us police ourselfes.
