Worldwide Republicanism (tm)

You don’t think this is the result of a steady reduction in active Christianity over time? You’re answering your own question. If you really want to see things change the most effective way to bring it about would be to encourage a return to Christianity in American society

The same christian nation that used and abused slaves during the week and prayed on sunday? That one?

Pretty sure it was always this way.

We’re not a Christian nation. Don’t let the GOP fool you.

Because they are crazy.

And how is the SCOTUS - a branch of the US Government - allowed to operate under the values of a religion? What about the separation of church and state?

250+ years of practice.

The Christian (specifically Protestant for the first century or so) US was never about "help the poor". From the revolution until the late 1800s, life expectancy and height at maturing both decreased. Brief exception during the New Deal.

It was never help the poor. That was a motto meant to confuse and derange, meanwhile we were and are killing Black folk.
