I think there is a lack of guiding principle without Christ. I also tend to think our nations problems are spiritually rooted.
But there is no reason to alienate those who are not Christians. As long as we don't change who we are to accommodate them.

The problem really is that most of christianity has lost it’s power and salt. The church has mostly failed to show people how to go within and be still, as the bible speaks of. THat place where there is the silent but moving holy spirit. So of course some people will turn sort of the other direction, because many christians are very weak. fhu.com teaches a wonderful silent prayer that allows people to become real and strong...changed my life so much. I can say that now I am truly a real christian and no longer have the compulsion to sin. It just has left me...still have weknesses to overcome, but sinning is done...thank God!
