This kind of rule is what the Christian nationalists want for America (those who adhere to dominion theology and Christian reconstructionism as taught by Rousas Rushdoony and his son-in-law Gary North, among others). They want the "moral" Law of Moses to become the law of the land.

I don't think that will ever happen, though. In fact, I see America going the socialist/globalist way of Europe. Even so-called "conservatives" in the Republican Party have shown themselves to have globalist and big government leanings.

Just think how many were burned at the stake by the Christians.

And some hard core Pentecostals often reference the verse were the husband and wife lied, then fell dead.

It's goes back to the making of this thread.

What if Conservative Christians ruled? Especially Strict holiness.

There would be no freedom of speech.

The common folk could not vote.

All rules and codes would be set by the Government.

Mandatory Church attendance and Tithing.

There would be the sin police patrolling cities.

One clothing store owned a designed by the leaders.

No make up, No swimming at beaches. No Sports....etc.

No media and no influence from other countries.

It would be pretty close to North Korea Now!

Getting back to the subject of the thread, before folks come along and started trouble................


It would be a terrible place if Christians ruled.

Especially Extreme conservatives no matter what denomination.

Could you imagine if the believed Eye for an Eye??

It would be like the Christian witch hunters that killed tongue talkers.

You are dead wrong here, Coop. Hopefully you are not so self righteously blinded to see that you started it by making a false accusation based upon your own apparent self condemnation!

OOPS! I guess now I called you self righteous. Let me clarify that I DID not call you self righteous.. I simply expressed my desire that you would not be.

Learn to laugh a little and quit being so defensive. You might actually find that there is wisdom in some of what is sent your way if you don't deflect everything with this shield of " I have been wounded and all Pentes are out to get me"!

I agree with this...

However, I do believe conservative Christians are needed in the public discourse.

Sure there are some that would outlaw going to the beach. And they are wrong. But without that voice on the right, we are left with only the secular humanists voice who would allow just about anything. We would move quickly to a place where morality was outlawed and perversion would be the rule.

As dangerous at some think the ultra conservative Christian is, the voice from the pit of hell is given full approval from the secular humanists who would drag our nation into every perversion known to man…


So, lets keep the UCs around we need their voice….ALSO
