You make a good point. However, I would respond by asking, "How is it that God blesses any nation on the Earth. Even America is full of those who curse God, murder the unborn, promote Homosexuality, etc..." Just because we are historically known as the "Christian" nation, let us not become arrogant in thinking that we are not under the same potential judgment as any other nation on earth because of our sin. It is soley by grace that we haven't been destroyed totally yet.
