America is falling as a nation, and many, many other people are already denouncing citizenship. Over four thousand this year so far, I believe.

So you want to do this? Yah that. It wouldn't be that hard, actually, because I am eligible for Slovak citizenship. It would just be a transition from one country to another, really.

=l But you would still reside in the continental US? No, why would I live there. =l I'm perfectly happy living in Slovakia. Besides, why would I want to live in a country where I am laughed at, arrested, taunted, etc. for my faith? Here in Slovakia, I am accepted, and by Catholics, no less! They do not believe that it is immature or stupid etc. for oneself to stand up for what they believe.

=l Oh I see, so you just plan on leaving the US. Pretty sure God does call people to live in places where being a Christian isn't necessarily easy, and may involve persecution ranging from mild to extreme levels (note the life of Paul, for example). And to be honest, Christians aren't exactly considered "immature" or "stupid" by the general decent crowd in America; we have it quite easy here. But whatever floats your boat; that's your decision and nobody's stopping you from being perfectly happy.
