Rome declined because Romans got fat, lazy and corrupt. They wouldn't fight in the army, so German mercenaries had to be recruited for the ranks of the legions. More and more, foreigners began to run the Empire, and they ran it badly. They stole what they could steal, and didn't care what happened to Rome because it wasn't their city or their people. Eventually the corruption and mismanagement became so bad, things just fell apart.
Moral of the story: a people need to stay integrated, with one race, one language, one religion. When they begin to fragment and diversify, their end is in the making.
How does that bear on today? Jews run America, but they have their primary loyalty to the tribe, not to America. Blacks increasingly fill the ranks of the military at the low end, but they hate their white officers and they hate their own country. Hispanics flood into the southern states, and refuse to adopt English as their language.
Conclusion: America is fucked. It is so fragmented it cannot survive in its present form. White Christians gave away their nation to Jews and other alien elements, and as a consequence, that nation will fall.

So you are saying that the inherent liberalism of christianity is its’ downfall and European Americans need a fresh religion?
