If we are to take the christians seriously, then the following will at the very least happen:
*abortion made illegal
*gay marriage banned
*preaching and prayer will be allowed in school
*limits to divorce

....Which is what I would call draconian, especially the abortion one.

And yes, britain in the start of the century did have draconian laws like the death penalty, sodomy laws existed, divorce was a lot harder and abortion was illegal and treated like murder.

It's quite funny when you think about it, personal freedoms have gone up from the days of feudalism until today, and in the same period of time the power of christianity has gone down.... That might not be a coincidence....

Uhm, what? Are you ashamed that your faith converts junkies? Do you consider them lesser people, or what?

Because fact is that junkies and alcoholics is one of christianity's top sources of converts. And a rise in the number of junkies will logically be followed by an increase in the number of christians.
