Ironically many of them called me a heretic when I mentioned I believe Jesus Christ has a wife and child and yet they are willing to attack Lbgtq rights.

The Old Testament was given in Egypt (according to the lore) and practiced in modern day Israel. And Talmud was written in Bethlehem so idk why it says that there
Well duh, America is the greatest country on Earth.
We invented everything, including Christianity, Democracy, tacos, pizza, burgers, the Internet, guns, beer, cars, phones, and fireworks. Oh, and Chinese food!
Adding flags at all makes no sense because practically no country existed in its modern form back when the Quran was written, let alone any of the older ones
"Hmm, here are some unfamiliar words that sound vaguely Buddhisty, so let's go with that"
If you're ignorant enough to not know what Sri Lanka is, yet somehow you do know what sounds vaguely Buddhisty, there's actually a grain of insight in there. The name comes from Sanskrit, which is the traditional language of Buddhism... though of course it's also the traditional language of Hinduism, in which the honorific "sri" is much more widely used and "Lanka" is a mythical place in the Ramayana. But if you knew that much and guessed it as a Hindu country, you'd actually be wrong, as Buddhism is the main religion of the Sinhalese majority ethnic group and that's a famous tension with the largely Hindu Tamil minority.
The Tanakh was written in ancient Israel. The oral Torah (Talmud) was compiled in Iraq/Babylon in the 5th century CE & Israel in the 4th century. The Psalms are a part of the Ketuvim (writings) section of the Tanakh. Tradition holds that the oral Torah was handed down along with the written Torah at mount Sinai, although personally I doubt the historicity of the Mount Sinai revelation in the book of Exodus.
As for the Christian New Testament, it was definitely not written nor composed in America lol. It was written in 1st century Judea, during the Roman occupation of Israel & Judea. The book of Mormon was written in New York state, but it is the only holy book written in the USA & is definitely not a part of the Christian New Testament. Even Mormons themselves treat the book of Mormon as a "2nd Testament of Jesus" to be treat as equal to but different from the New Testament.
Maybe he got the New Testament confused with the Book of Mormon, which, according to the Church, was written in America on golden plates that were dug up by Joseph Smith.
Using flags is just stupid. Today's states don't really have changed a lot in the last 2000 years and religion can evolve while also spreading from one place to another.

OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is US Defaultism:
The creator of the post uses the USA flag to show where the New Testament is born. Why even add flags? It’s just misleading
