Thought on the Fourth of July

If God, desiring to establish on this continent a Christian nation, devoted to Him, so as to put it to His purposes in the ensuing centuries, called forth devout English-speaking people of the world, brought them across the ocean, settled them in this country, and inspired them to cross the continent--

If God, to establish the United States of America, a free nation of free people, dedicated to a society given to Christian ideals, to honor His name, gave the land to the people of the world that He brought to the nation,

who is anyone to complain, including those who preceded the European immigrants?

(BTW: everyone on this continent is an immigrant or a descendant of an immigrant. Ouch! the truth hurts.)
