I think this is how most major changes are made, from the bottom up. Those are the changes that actually stick.

The change has to come from the bottom up. Not the top down.

Church-state has existed before almost everywhere. They are trying to impose it on the West again with Sharia Law. We need a kind of virtue that may not be connected to an organized religion.

What To Do about Homelessness

That's very true. I rarely talk about this but the secularization of American culture is a huge factor with so many of our problems. Moral decay is real. I know it triggers people but the impact of Jesus on western civilization cannot be ignored. The more we move away from that the worse things will get.

I'm not suggesting a church state. I'm suggesting we need virtue and the virtues that Jesus lived and taught have led to the most amazing prosperity the world has ever seen. Many that wear the name of Jesus have done this a disservice. I'm not pointing the figure at anyone but the church. We need to do better.
