I wonder if everyone in the US was a devout Christian...not luke warm or subscribing to false doctrine, then how many


people would be murdered in the US
how many bank roberies would there be
how many divorces we would have
how many hate crimes would we have
how many shooting sprees we would have
how many homeless we would have
how many lonely people we would have
how many depressed people we would have
how many abortions we would have
how many teenage pregnancies we would have
how many drug abusers we would have
how many lawsuites we would have
how many ...??? etc...

not many i would imagine...I imagine that would be how God intended it...I am not saying we should force everyone to be a Christian because everyone needs to make there own choice, but just imagine if everyone did? What a nice world...just imagine how much better it would be...and now just try and tell me that Christianity should be removed as the foundation of our nationi

How is Christianity a foundation of a nation? I don't doubt it, I suppose I just haven't thought it through. What would that entail, economically...legally?

Also, I assume that you believe depression occurs in less than devout Christians? How is such quantified? Is it black and white? Or the devout range is about a 80 out of 100? :noidea

I would also suggest a devout Christian is far different than a devout Christ.

Also, Christianity is NOT Christ. It also isn't God. So forcing what, in terms of Christianity would make for a better world or country? Really it need be defined in terms of self guidance or legal reform, or Pharisitic hues, or crusades and indulgences? The history of "Christianity", aka those purporting to believe in and follow Christ, hasn't been free of sin. :noidea

Well, all those things will still occur even when you are a christians. There will always be christians who is struggling with temptations. Thats because we are sinners by heart. But by grace of God, all those things that we did, he will forgive us through the blood of christ.
