If America's not mentioned in the bible, do we exist?
This question bothers me as I ponder the fundie mind. If the only truth is the bible and we are not in the bible do we exist? Is there a clause for additions in the bible like ammendments to the constitution?

Let's think about how we can get this meme into all fundamentalists' ears.

5. According to their interpretation
America is represented by the forces of the righteous in Revelation. We are also the shining city on a hill. I don't know if that's actually in the bible, but that's what they believe.

7. There are Passages Which Refer to "The Islands"
which fundamentalists claim mean "the continents." They also claim that many of these refer to North and South America.
