Yes I am aware it has Christians in it and that they make up the majority but please could you explain how that makes the country and the way it runs a Christian one.
Christianity is, by far, the most popular religion. That's the only justification.
For those that insist that the laws of America were based on the Bible...let's examine, for starters, the Ten Commandments.
*************
ONE: 'You shall have no other gods before Me.'
TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.'
THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.'
FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.'
FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother.'
SIX: 'You shall not murder.'
SEVEN: 'You shall not commit adultery.'
EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.'
NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.'
TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's.'
********************
Numbers 6 and 8 are each recognized laws.
Numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10 are not recognized laws, and at most, are simply considered rude in certain circles. Number 7 is, essentially, an unenforceable law.
I fail to see how this makes us a land based on Christian doctrine. The fact is that we are simply not.
If you admit that the majority is Christian, and America is a democracy in a republic (IOW a representitive government) Then the representitives represent the majority which as you stated are Christians.
I can't say I agree with this, but it's your own statements.
If the US is a Christian nation simply by majority, then it must also be a single, white, middle-aged, female, working-class nation by majority. That doesn't mean we should instate laws that would only benefit this majority.

Constitution of the United States.

There is no avenue within our society that has not and continues to reflect the truths of Scripture to, of course, varying degrees.
One only need be blinded by the hardness of heart to see this.
As we move forward in time and the reflection of Scripture diminishes;
We will see the blessing of God upon our nation diminish as well.
Such can already be clearly seen, if one can see.
Well, the hate, ignorance, and intolerance are certainly present, as you would expect from "true christians".
It must be, as they all say it is.
Throw a few of them to the lions I say.
I cannot justify that, because it isn't.
It is closer to a Sodom and Gomorrah. If we as a nation would turn back to God, he would heal our land.
