Teleios evaluated societal measures that might have influenced wellbeing in religious groups who immigrated for greater religious freedom from Europe to the British colonies. We found that the colonists developed societies that offered enhanced educational, governmental, religious and economic freedom. These great freedoms may have been related to biblically based concepts of the importance of the individual as well as the government’s responsibility to God and to create an orderly environment. In summary, when Christian groups seeking freedom of worship immigrated from Europe to the American colonies, they gained greater religious, economic, governmental and educational freedom and provided a better life for their themselves, their children.

It also shows that removal of Christianity is detrimental to America.
We have witnessed the decline of American society and the resulting crime, poverty, debauchery and loss of any moral compass as a guide. People today do whatever is "right" in their own eyes. Scripture clearly teaches, "Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD." (Psalm 33:12) and "blessed are the people whose God is the LORD" (Psalm 144:15). We were founded upon the recognition of Almighty God's providence, the inalienable rights He has endowed and to securing His blessings of liberty to all. But if we continue on this same dangerous, downward path, our destruction is a foregone conclusion.
However...there is always hope. We CAN regain God's blessing and He tells us how:
It is not too late!
