If I find the research--a very low priority--I'll post it on the PROPHETIC SIGNS OF END TIMES thread.
The morality issues correlated were pretty standard fare that every culture would easily agree with. Basic values are not that different the world over.
Very few cultures have families loving the neighboring family if the neighboring family is theiving, raping and murdering and the like.

Posts like that only serve to cement stereotypes that the left has about christians. That is an amazingly silly thing to post. In my lifetime I have heard "end times are very very soon!" blather thrown my way dozens of times, join the real world, your hyperventilating nonsense only undermines anything of value you have to add to a thread. Pray for the victims, we are all human.

I agree that there are basic values we all agree on. The issue is that you must agree with ALL the moral assumptions in order for the study to be valid. Once we get past the 10 commandments, we can find many places where Christians disagree on issues they would call moral issues. And some Christians won't even recognize all the commandments as valid.
