To summarize:
You claim American Christians are a minority compared to global
Christianity.
You claim God is NOT with American Christians.
YOu claim American Christians are different Christians.

uh huh..

There are approx 38000 Christian denominations.
EVerybody is doing their own Christian spin-off.
Everybody does Christianity there own way.
American Christians have their own take on the bible.
Different cultures have different needs and the bible is cherry picked
or tuned to capture a specific audience.
This is what 38000 Christian denominations are doing.
Nobody has the right/correct/standard/absolute/offical way of
Christianity.

The more ambiguous/vague a book is, the more it can be what you want it
to be.

afaik.. The minimal requirement to be a Christian is to believe:
1) Jesus was made by gestational surrogacy and is humanoid.
2) Jesus made a death trade. His death was traded for God to forget
about all the bad/naughty behavior done by humans.
3) Jesus became a zombie to prove the existence of zombies and that
there's an undetectable dimension where zombies and other dead people
are collected to praise God.

Nobody speaks for 38000 Christian denominations.
No Christian can represent 38000 Christian denominations.
If you're lucky, there might be a consensus among 38000 Christian
denominations as to what the minimal requirements are to be Christian.

afaik(due to no official existing standard) the minimal requirements to
be Christian are:

1) Believe in Jesus. A guy in a desert who know nothing scientific.
2) Believe Jesus died. Jesus put on a gore show and died for a wonderful
reason to benefit us all.
3) Believe Jesus wasn't permanently dead. Jesus recovered from maggot
attack to show people there's a magic land for dead people.

You are in God's ER at this moment.
When there is an emergency in God's place then God's place becomes God's
emergency room.
You are in God's ER and God is watching you.
You have to pray to/ask an omniscient God for help in God's ER otherwise
God says 'No help until you say the magic words.'. Praying for help is a
moral indignation, discriminating, belittling, coercive and a violation
of the Hippocratic oath.
Praying to God is repulsive and it's probably insulting to God.
God can be insulted due to:
1) Prayer is an attempt to control God. God is a master not a servant.
2) Prayer is disbelief in God's omniscience
3) Prayer is disbelief in God's hyperintelligence.

Pray and say thanks but anything else is risking an angry Old Testiment
God.

Christian engineers are ridiculous in believing in a God that makes
horrible demonstrations of good with the excuse of having mysterious
hyperintelligent reasons.

If you go to the emergency room where I live and they help you, thank God
because it is a miracle! The only thing the ER does well around here is
sending the bill.

I can watch a movie that I've seen many times and I can know what is going
to happen, however this doesn't make me responsible for what happens in the
movie. However if the director asks me to determine what happens, then I
can both know what is going to happen and be the cause of what happens. The
difference is in the asking. You'll have to excuse God for not doing what
he's not asked to do.

You arrive in the ER.

Doctor: What can I do for you?
You: You're the doctor, you should know.
Doctor: Nurse, admit this idiot for $2000 per day and cram medicine up his
rear, maybe it will help his brain. Then schedule an operation for
tomorrow, we need to remove his head from his anus.
