That is a juvenile understanding of Christian theology. What you missed is 'free will'. God created mankind. To put it simply, it is free will that make a person 'good' or 'bad'.
Where was China for over 200 yrs, the same time that the US existed, in science ? YOU effectively placed all of science's progress on the shoulders of atheists.
But there is a catch...
When people talk of 'atheists', they usually mean atheists in relation to Christianity. Not necessarily in relation to Bhuddism or Shintoism or any other religious 'isms'. Usually to Christianity.
That mean China without Christianity should have been the shiny star of science and technology, no ? So explain to me why the microwave oven did not come from China. Am not talking about mass production of the device. Am talking about the conceptualization of using microwave freqs to heat food. Why did it not came from China when China had almost no Christians back then ?
you are saying like:we did it and you did not!
I would like to say when china invented fire power,paper,printing in ancient times ,where is your precious usa?
Founded by washintong in 1776 ,while CHINA qing empire was already going down,and then later 1840 with opinium war chinese inner market and self reliance crashed by uk and other western powers,and until 1949,china has signed by force more than a thousand unfair treaties with uk,usa,germany,jap,italy,france,russia,belgium,holland,portugees,spain,........
western powers took control of almost everthings in china market,china at that time was like iraq,afganistan, syria or libya of today where human life was in danger and you want them to invent stuffs!???
when people put a gun on your head the most urgent thing to do is to survive than inventing stuffs,luckily we china are ready to invent today!
