What if others based their view of our society on the bible?

So, I was thinking about various statements I've heard from fellow Americans regarding the middle eastern culture.
People commonly base it on sayings in the Qur'an or Koran, saying things like "what do you expect from a society that believes when you die you get 72 virgins?"

That got me thinking, what if people in other countries viewed the USA through the words in the bible?

-USA would have slaves
-women would have no say in anything, let alone vote

Can you come up with more crazy things they might think of a "christian" USA?

How about: "What do you expect from a society that worships a 'Trinity' and yet insists their religion is monotheistic?"
When life gives you lemons, make orange juice and let the world wonder how you did it.

Women also would have to be slaves in a sense,they would be property of their hubsands.And those with slaves could kill them and if they lived more then a day it would be A O K.I'm pretty sure we would have been nuked by now.Either that or alot of people would turn away from the bible.
