Critique My Friends Theory (New Babylon)

My best friend has theorized that the USA is what the Bible refers to as "New Babylon" and that the Book of Revelation will come to pass once the USA falls to darkness (the UN, or foreign powers). He claims as the beacon of light in an otherwise dreary world, the fall of the US as a world power will signal Jesus second coming. Discuss.

Americans really want America to be important.

@JaggedLittlePill According to your profile, you are American. Are you a self hating American?

@ShadowWolf Why does this small comment equate to "self hate"?

Don't make assumptions.

I am simply a realisitc human who understands the bullshit that is espoused in my country.

@ShadowWolf Of course you are a Libertarian....🤣

@JaggedLittlePill How unpatriotic of you.

@JaggedLittlePill I’m a Libertarian, what does that have to do with anything?

@JaggedLittlePill Of course they do - just as the residents of any country want theirs to be important.

@ArishMell I think you are aware of what is meant by this. The bible is fictional anyhow. .. so, believing it describes America before it ever existed is as absurd as it seems.

No one needs to be proud of their country in order to be a decent human. Most people don't want their country to be important. They want to live freely without fear of the government. Most people aren't obsessed with "statesmanship" or their love of country.. but their love of other humans and their experiences in that.

The point is, Americans want America to be "exceptional" and "mentioned in the bible" because that lends clearance to their delusions.

I really love when men play stupid.

@ShadowWolf Your immediate response shows the true reasoning behind your original question. You accuse me of being a self hating American...it is typical reasoning of a Libertarian.

I am not conerned with patriot status
