And what is your point, that our country suffers morally for not having more people who cannot, will not, practice what they preach?
Nixon, Reagan, Trump, all raised as Christians and with the 3 administrations with the most members indicted and convicted.
Clinton, Obama, and Biden also Christians, but..........

Honored more in the breach than in the observance applies:
The five of the teachings of Jesus are the following: Be Merciful (Luke 6:36, Matthew 5:7, Forgiveness (Luke6: 37), Seek Goodness (Luke 6:45), Respect Others (Luke 14:11), and Be Kind (Luke 6:31). Be Merciful (Luke 6:31).
