The Evolution of the Christian Religion in America: Christianity at the Crossroads

By Richard Castagner

This book provides an important look at the history associated with the Catholic Religion in America. It is broken into six parts: the early history of world religions, the world and the American history of Christianity, the current state of American Christianity, and the future of Christianity in America and the world.So what is an accurate spiritual picture of America today? In the history of the world, there have been only two nations that have been founded entirely upon a monotheistic religion: Israel and America. In examining the history of both nations, there appear to be many parallels, namely that both nations were settled by those freed from a land of slavery and oppression, both were founded by a set of ideals based upon the Rule of Law rather than the rule of men (or kings), and both were greatly blessed and soon grew incredibly prosperous. However, after achieving vast prosperity, both nations became deeply divided between the pagans (or seculars) and those that held to the faith and principles of their founders. After being divided, both lost their place of prominence and became mocked and ridiculed by all her neighbors, which is what America has been experiencing in recent years.There is a dark cloud looming on the horizon of America. I do not pretend to be able to see beyond the looming dark cloud. I do know that a field of battle is before us. Our young people may not want to die on fields drenched red with blood, but they must battle in the classroom, in the lecture halls, at the ballot box, on Madison Avenue, in mass media, in the newsrooms, in the hospitals, and in the churches. They must battle at home and abroad and we must help them. We must battle not just for the finances of this nation, but for its soul. We are being pushed toward one of three ultimate endgames: the imposition of the socialist state, a conservative reversal of the Nation at the ballot box or another Civil War.It may be that we shall end our forefathers' experiment with a Constitutional Democracy based on a strong religious foundation. Per the 2016 election our Nation has been given a reprieve to reverse the Socialist Movement by electing a Conservative Populist President with a mandate in Congress. Socialism has had 50 years to establish itself in our Nation. The fight will be difficult but hope springs eternal.Only time and the American people can tell.
