The philosophical tenets that made the US the greatest nation ever in the history of the world led to the greatest achievements in the history of the world.
Uh huh.
Come talk to me when America is a bit older, yeah? Like Roman Empire older. plenty of nations have been bigger, more powerful, and longer lived than America.
Yeah, talk to me when you can actually name a nation that has provided more to the world than the US.

Wiping out pagan religions?
Hardly...both Easter and Christmas are celebrations honoring Ishtar and Saturn, both pagan gods.
