The holy God is sovereign over life. The Western Sodom and its mimickers could be next for the Divine wrath. You need humility before God. You have life from Him. Yes, godless secularism's crown work.Secularism is useless because of its amorality. What is the use of chanting human rights and liberty if America fails to protect a child from pervs? Democracy is meaningles if the people are barbaric. Mankind needs the Gospel for salvation and Christian ethics to be civilized. America was created to spread Christianity, not barbarians' democracy. American liberals are well-dressed barbarians.

What is the use of chanting hymns and prayers if the church fails to protect a child from perv priests?
See how easy that one was to turn around? Contrary to popular belief amongst fundies, religiosity does not automatically make you better and more moral than others. In fact, many use it to justify being *less* moral to others.
<Mankind needs the Gospel for salvation and Christian ethics to be civilized>
Japan and China would disagree with you.
<America was created to spread Christianity, not barbarians' democracy.>
No, America was created as a safe haven for people to practice whatever beliefs or lack thereof they had without fear of persecution at the hands of a state-enforced religion, which is exactly what you fundies keep trying to turn America into.
What makes you single out the United States as a haven for child abuse? I can go throughout the world and throughout history to give you examples, and I can assure you that Christians are indistinguishable from any other group, except perhaps that they are more sneaky about it. For starters, ever hear of the Castrati?
Fear of punishment is not morality. The Christian monopoly on the Western mind was based on intolerance and terror tactics. It has been broken and will stay broken. Your Axe-grinding zeal has been seen for the joke that it is. Go home, and take your crazy superstitions with you.
To most sane people, human rights are the basis for morality.
The Catholic (and Protestant) Church has also failed to protect children from pedo priests. Or rather, they did worse than just fail; they hushed it up and moved the priests to new parishes, so they could molest even more children.
Democracy demands at least a majority of civilized people. Barbaric people tend to favor dictatorships.
The Gospel has been used to excuse all kinds of barbaric things, so no.
America was created to move away from Christian theocracy.
I'd say there are much more barbarians in the GOP.
....American liberals are well-dressed barbarians.

....Huh...Actually he doesn't seem all that well-dressed.
Maybe you're looking for Red Sonya The Scientist and Ator The Endangered Animals Guy.
Judging by the antics of the Far-Right and Fat Cats, your comparison to Sodom & Gomorrah is quite accurate....
EZEKIEL 16:49-50 (KJV)
49. Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
50. And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.
Hmmmm....Sounds like the agenda of the Tealiban & GOP!
I confess, I am a liberal barbarian, but I am not exactly well dressed. Unless you like BDU pants, Misfits tee shirts, and combat boots.
Kid Cthulhu (and his camo pants) have spoken.
Oh and Spuki-chan, way to bring Ator into the equation. MSTy Pride!
