How did this nation start again?
Christians fleeing oppression.
The problem is not racial, as we are all created equal, but like someone said upscreen, cultural. And I belisve that culture is largely determined by what is considered sin. Take away Christianity, and its self control imperative, and all you have is law, which is based on power. Power alone corrupts and produces unrighteousness and all manner of injustices. More law equals more fail.
We are going down that wide road also, desperately making more laws to restrain the desperatly wicked heart of man. It’s doomed to failure because the people themselves are mostly unrepentant.
