Belligerent and Conditioned to Kill

Al Cronkrite / The Covenant News:
United States of America was conceived in war, birthed in war, and has been a belligerent nation throughout its history. Yes, the Pilgrims and Puritans were Reformed Christians with sound theological underpinnings. Initially they set out to convert the Indians but within a few short decades, when the Indians realized their land was being invaded, their patience with Indian terrorism ran out, they became imbued with the "promised land" syndrome, and began to systematically kill those they had previously tried to convert. Uncurbed by reference to God's immutable Character and Laws, the intrinsic sinfulness of human nature quickly trashes righteousness in favor of the human prerogative even in orthodox Christian circles.
