I have stated for the past two years that God decided to intervene one more time to save America when he provided us with Donald Trump against all odds and predictions.
God = "OK, for the 10th time in the past 250 years I have had to step in and save you from yourselves - this time I am inflicting DONALD J. TRUMP on you just to show my patience is wearing thin. - If you don't straighten up this time, you are on your own the next time. I will look elsewhere for My favored nation.

In political discourse the word 'morality' is used the same as the word 'fascist'. There is no bright line so the words mean what you want them to mean.
In terms of religion the atheists (mandated by Marxism) have always replaced God with something else. In the 60s the Beatles went to Hinduism. Others went back to new hip theories that were actually ancient Paganism. People will always have a void. They will fill it with something.

Easy. The Bible says that a person who doesn't work shouldn't eat, and it also says no one should be under compulsion to give.
So the Bible is against every form of modern government then?

It’s no coincidence that the more this country steers away from God the more chaotic and immoral people get.
There was a time in this country when people used their belief in God to justify the most immoral institution this nation has ever seen - slavery.
That was over 150 years ago.
The immorality of the genocide of the indigenous population of this continent ended about 100 years ago.
We tend to look back on the past through rose-colored glasses, and think that the times we live in are the worst ever, but I suspect things haven't really changed as much as we are led to believe. Consider this, to the people living before the industrial revolution, before electric light and automobiles, they were living in 'modern times'.

It deals with the individual, not the collective. It's irrespective of government. The New Testament
Compassion isn't collective, it's an individual act. Wanting to take more of one mans resources to give to another isn't compassion or moral

It's an embarrassing argument if you spend more than five seconds thinking about it.
Christianity, if someone truly believes orthodox doctrine, claims non-believers will be punished in Hell for eternity. Now while there is a nearly endless list of logical and philosophical flaws with this premise, if some one genuinely believes that how can they be expected not to evangelize?
I've long felt that a genuine, orthodox christian who chooses not to evangelize is not someone I would want to associate with. The amount of indifference or hatred such a person must have for their fellow man is terrifying.
Now, this is fundamentally separate from attempting to regulate behaviors legislatively.

You can't even present an argument proving any of that. It does prove your arrogance.

“The threefold answer lies in the stated purposes of the Constitution, its religious neutrality, and the theory of government it embodies. Whereas the Declaration explained and justified a rebellion to secure God-given rights, the Constitution is a blueprint for stable and effective republican government in a free country. The Preamble to the Constitution declares that its purposes are “to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty.” These are wholly secular objects; religious references are extraneous in a document drafted to further them.”
what imbecile can downvote this?

Do not let anyone fool you. For the Lord will not come again until many people turn away from God.
Pray. Ask for forgiveness. Seek him first.

You guys need to look up Mark Taylor's prophetic word on sordrescue.com and watch some of his videos on youtube. He has given prophetic word about the Supreme Court justices and many other things going on in our nation.

Shouldn’t Christians be happy about this? Don’t you want the lord to come back? Why all the bitching about society turning evil then?

Absolutely fine with me.
However you have a terrible conception of how it's funded.

True, some of the money to be paid to soon-to-be-retired Baby Boomers will have to come from future payments from younger workers. But a big chunk of the bill has already been set aside. And by 2015, the amount set aside in the trust fund will swell to five times the estimated annual payouts. So the idea that Boomers will somehow be sponging off the next generation for all of their retirement funds just isn't true.
