10. Most of the people I've met who say they want a "Chrisitan" nation

Embody so very little of the teachings of Christ it'd be laughable if it wasn't so terrible.
They want a Christian nation of war, executions, denying health care, arresting people trying to feed & clothe the homeless, polluting our air & waters, money over morality, zero stewardship of the planet or it's animals. When they say they want a Christian nation it has nothing to do with Christ. They want an Old Testament nation. They don't believe in JC. Never have, never will. They want Leviticus. They want fire & brimstone. Love and compassion is as alien an emotion to them as enjoying the suffering of another human being is to us.
