You got lumped as an American because of your past posts where you acted as a stereotypical American, which is somewhat unfair to Americans as a whole since you have a Texan stereotype and not necessarily a comprehensive American attitude.
If you see me as a stereotype, that's your loss, not mine; I've lived forty-seven years without worrying myself about your opinion, and I'm not about to start now.
Your filters are your own. Own them.
My filters are the same of many who have had to deal with Americans....I'll be quite honest with you...most of the less favorable Americans I have met have actually come from New England than from the South and yes, they have their own stereotype in America that you don't seen expressed outside of America as much.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
