This thread is all over the place. I will add this;
IMO if there's anyone out there that does not understand that empty pews in the churches of our neighborhoods and the state of our nation do not have direct correlation they're severely deluded. Our freedoms are connected to our nation and fairly unique to it.
John Wesley said "What one generation tolerates the next generation will embrace".
The Bible is full of the words "The people did what was good and right in thier own eyes" or just "what was good to themselves". Just read from the prophets and you'll know where it ends.
