"America is also the nation that leads industrialized countries in murder rates, violent crime, imprisonment, abortion, sexually transmitted diseases, teen suicide, divorce, single-parent households, drug use, pornography and failing schools."

I doubt that fundamentalist Christianity is the answer, for many places which have a lot less of the listed problems, also have a lot less fundamentalist Christianity.

And the part of the US that suffers the most from these items is the bible belt.
