They seem (most all of them) to take refuge in their cliques in their Churches like their scared to reprove in the manner that God and Jesus said Christians should reprove those that go against God's laws.
This is why I don't like organized "religion" in Christianity. It seems they don't understand what being a true Christian entails.
They are weak, and this has contributed to the fall of America's foundations and traditions.

"Of their flesh (of the swine) shall ye not eat, and their carcase ye shall not touch; they are unclean to you" Leviticus 11:8
and many of the Christians I know eats pork. Isn't that going against god's law?
Same as "for it is a shame for women to speak in the Church" 1 Corinthians 14:34-35.
Thruth is, people only seek religion when they are in trouble. That's is why there are no Moral Outrage until it affects them directly.

I would love to hear what you believe a true christian is. We fight hard for our beliefs and values and are constantly criticized (man that's a hard word to spell!) for it. But I assure you, it's not about America's traditions, it's about salvation. Besides...we know that society will be REALLY horrible just before Jesus comes back...we have something to look forward to...a light at the end of this long dark tunnel. Trust me, there are millions of us Christians fighting daily for morals and values.

this is cute-because you see a need you reject those that are doing their best to meet the need
Dear God open eyes to the truth that life is LIFE + Jesus said "I am the way the truth and the life, no one cometh unto heaven but by me." John 14 verse 6
Jesus said "The one that rejects my words, the same words will judge them in the last day." John 12:48
John 3 "Except you repent of sin and let me into your heart to save you and be your friend=born again, you can not see the kingdom of heaven."
Revelation 19-22nd chapters Jesus describes the joy of heaven and the agony of weeping forever and gnashing teeth in hell.
I am born a Jew & taught to reject Jesus -now he is my best friend and savior and I look forward to heaven and have no fear in death, once I would have died and gone to hell forever for rejecting the bible- so it gives me even more joy to know what Jesus has delivered me from and even more he is my best friend and savior I am glad to help others in this too
what will u do to save people? a lone rangerette who seems to be on a time table to condemn rather than to help

Show me in the Bible where it says we have to make the world into "Heaven on earth?"
The world will always be the world and Heaven will always be Heaven. And with you on the outside of the church looking in, you are the last solution to any such problem.
Instead of lecturing the church for not taking over the govt, why dont YOU take over what Jesus told you to, which is to work with believers as part of a church and SPREAD THE GOSPEL. That is our mission, not to maintain church/states. Thats been tried, it doesnt work.

The falling of society in one place depends on the actuations of men sorrounding the society. It is not the work of religious people but the society it self.
