What are good ways of increasing Christian influence on politics and education?
Wе live іn Godless times. Secularism іѕ creeping іntο politics аnd education аt аn alarming rate. Without ехсеllеnt countermeasures, heathens аnd atheists wіll overrun thе country.
Whаt actions hаνе уου taken іn уουr community tο combat secularism?
What happened to separation of church and state? Or is this not a free country?
declare war on Iraq…
oh wait, we are doing that.
Since increasing Christian influence in just about anything would be detrimental to our society and mankind in general, I don’t reckon there are any “excellent” ways.
“This country is in no way founded upon the Christian doctrine.”
~George Washington
Religion should not be in politics.
You have plenty of influence. Trust me.
The USA is the one of the most religious western counties and most Christian country(80% claim to be Christian)which is amusing because it has the highest crime rates, one of the lowest education rates(for western countries)and has one of the highest poverty rates(for western countries again). Also look at its wars in recent history and its intolerance to certain groups and people(gay, abortion etc).
Then on the other hand you have Sweden the most atheist country(85%)and its the exact opposite. One of the best welfare systems, lowest crime rates, one of the highest educated nations in the world and is extremely tolerant(even if Scandinavia does have some of the highest suicide rates which is attributed to climate/lack of light etc not religion before you initiation harping on). When did you last see the Swedes invading a country controversially?
What does that say about religion, morals and quality of life?
Also the states in America with highest crime, lowest education and highest poverty are the southern ones ie the MOST RELIGIOUS.
The thought a secular soceity is a terrible thing is absolutely an American thought in the west, the rest of the developed world knows it’s best. There is mountains of evidence for it.
That is all fact, check it up if you don’t believe me.
Have you ever read the constitution? It was written for a excellent reason.
kill all non christians..you know like the Crusades..and then to mop up the leftovers bring back the Inquisition!
Religion has no place in politics or education. Religious information may be sought out by persons who are interested. You will never force it upon people of the western world.
Throw your ideology out there and let it battle with all the others, just like everyone else does. May the best ideology win!
You have a mental problem called “poor boundaries.”
You reckon that your beliefs should be held and followed by other people, even to the extent of putting them into law.
This is your problem. Your inability to separate yourself and your beliefs, is a symptom of poor boundaries, your inability to sense that you are a person, and you are NOT anyone else – your faith is YOUR FAITH, not mine, not my wife’s.
Please question yourself why you can’t tell where you end and everyone else starts? Please work on your problem.
What do you mean “Secularism is creeping into politics and education”? In a pluralistic society, it is really religion that does not belong in either of persons arenas and must be removed when it sneaks in.
Have you read the Bill of Rights? The first two clauses of the First Amendment are pretty clear:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of a religion, nor prohibiting the free exercise thereof…”

secularism is a excellent thing
Whoa there! Christian influence? How would you feel if someone questioned for excellent ways to increase Islamic influence in politics and education? I bet you wouldn’t like that. As a Catholic, I reckon religion should stay as far away as possible from the negative influence of politics!
