None of the facts support you. US statistics.
Suicide rate per 100000 1950 13.2 1960 12.5 1970 13.1 2019 13.7 Suicide death rate U.S. 1950-2019 | Statista US Crime rate has dropped significantly in the last 20 years. Don't believe the RWNJ's FBI — Table 1 So all your claims are false or with huge caveats. It seems the fewer people go to church the better society is. Now if you want to support your claims with evidence instead of anecdotes, I will listen. Then again we all know that will never happen. Hell, you won't even acknowledge this post.What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence. -Christopher Hitchens Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts "God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness. If your viewpoint has merits and facts to back it up why would you have to lie?

Everything you stated is irrelevant to my post. If you want to respond to my post fine, but make it relevant. I will not respond to gish gallop and word salad.

Do you actually want a conversation about the pre Civil war US economy? Do you actually think northern states did not benefit from slavery? Do you think you can hand wave away that slavery was enshrined in The Constitution?

Christians believe in the historicity of Jesus? Weird.

William Tell, Sun Tzu, Ned Ludd, Pythagoras, Homer, Siddhartha Gautama, Confucius, Laozi are people that either we know were not real or there is no actual evidence for their existence.

According to themselves and logic they are.
Everything else you post is a No True Scotsman fallacy. The same could be said about your beliefs by other christians. Again your hate, bigotry and disrespespect for the beliefs of others shines through.
