Well David, you continuously try and tell a tale about morality and how morality is going down the toilet, because there are not enough christians. You have also failed to support your claims with evidence, yet I have posted more than one study, that actually shows atheists have lower divorce rates, lower crime rates and in countries that have far fewer christians than the United States, the quality of life (crime rates, education, etc.) is better than the US.
Christian Polling Group Finds Atheists Divorce Less Than Christians | The New Civil Rights Movement
The reason the USA is in a cesspool of immoral lifestyles and daily practices, is because most of the Country has relegated God and his absolute loving moral mandates to the backburner..or..have tossed them in the trash so they can be their own 'god' .
Just taking into account the pop-atheist ideal of 'moral relativism' lived out...should be enough to make any rational person conclude that those who embrace this philosophy are going to be the Ones who are the Perpetrators ; true and genuine Christians (not those who profess they are or those who have an intellectual-assent only toward God) ...are a Group who have been completely transformed from the worldly philosophy of moral relativism and who thru a very real Born Again work of God , are not only interested in living a high moral life but who also occupy Gods power to maintain it. This comparison is based on pure common sense . If a person thinks they are afforded moral relativism without ultimate moral accountability... certainly you don't think they aren't going to fully excersise it in the name of 'freedom' and autonomy , do you ? Looking at the link you posted, I see a few problems with it : 1. It doesn't make sense based on what I just shared with you above . 2. Who knows if the 'Christians' surveyed were actual truly Born Again Followers of Christ or just professed- Christians . 3. What part of the Nation was the Study conducted on ? If the South, then the Poll isn't fair because in the South there are far more Households that suffer monetarily which is THE major reason for divorce . 4. A Group of People (non Christians) who get married in a church don't believe they are getting married in front of God and are vowing to him...versus....real Christians who do --- this will naturally make a case for more divorce among the irreligious because of no divine basis or accountability. Therefore, the Study you submitted has some obvious loopholes to it. .
And yes...you do need to become a Christian so you can be reconciled to God thru Christ so your many accumulated sins are not counted against you. Here is the way very simply :
Admit you are a Sinner in need of a Saviour .
Believe that Jesus is that Savior sent from Heaven to atone for your committed sins .
Confess that Jesus is the Savior of the World and that you've made him your King thru surrendering your entire life to him from this point forward. Confess he died and rose again after three days .
Then vow to use the remainder of your life in service to God and Others to the best of your ability.
Find a good local Church to attend where you can grow and make new Friends whom are going to Heaven with you also.
Please don't spend the rest of your life rejecting your Creator whos the Creator of the Universe. There is no greater crime than that.
