Ha! wrote: It would be the book of Pragmatism if it could be shown to work. But where is the proof? All past attempts to change society through political/economic means have failed and my book of pragmatism tells me that this is doomed to failure too! BUT even more importantly the Bible tells me that Christians should have no part in such schemes to control the ungodly. If the preaching of the Gospel, which is "...the power of God unto salvation...", does not change people for the better (even if they remain unconverted) then what hope is there that any man devised scheme can do any better?
