I posed with some great questions regarding my last post on the European Union. Why am I scared of a new, powerful Europe? Why do I like the dominination of the United States? I admit I was vague last time and didn't explain myself that well. My answer has two parts. I am not against another nation being as powerful as the United States; I have no problem with that. The problem I have with Europe becoming a powerful nation state is that the Europeans hate Americans. It's a know fact that most of these people cannot stand our country and our people (despite the countless times we have came to their aid to prevent their destruction). I really do not want these people to be as powerful as the US if they are going to hate us. I would have no objections to friendly nations, such as Japan or Australia, becoming a powerful force in the world. We could peacefully coexist with those type of nations; however, I don't feel we can with Europe. Imagine the countless disputes that would be between the two nations. It just wanted be a good relationship. Of course, the two nations would officially be allies out in the open but behind the curtains we will be at war. I'm sure the United States has bullied nations that we just don't like or we feel superior over. I feel that those instances we were in the wrong. We're learning, though. We are a relatively young country and are still learning things. Another reason of my fear of one strong powerful European nation is a religious one. The Bible tells us that at the end there will be one world nation with one currency and one language. This is happening in Europe; they already have one currency system and are moving towards one language. I know I shouldn't be scared about the end times, but I can't help but not looking forward to the end of the world or seeing it develop before my eyes.
