Are you serious? Prayer/religion binds the family, therefore, one can deduce that in the absence of religion, the family unit is less stable.
I'm afraid that we've reached an impasse.
Possibly. I say that the only way to weaken faith is to destroy the family unit. You say the only way to destroy the family unit is to weaken faith.
Your own statement supports my thesis. However, if you read my first post you will see that I state that weakening faith comes later, after the family unit is weakend enough that the leftist teachings start to take root in the children. (see education and the rermoval of God from society)
Let's argue for a moment that you are correct and all it takes to destroy faith is to replace it with the state. We have a couple of expamples, NAZI Germany and Soviet Russia.
The Soviets did everything it could to destroy religion and failed. Why? Because the family remained a strong source of faith. During WWII the Soviets returned to religion using it to bulster up the Russian people. Even after a strong sense of religion remained in the USSR and after the fall of communism it returned in strength.
Leftists in the US saw this flaw in the system and worked to fix it by destroying the family through every means it could think of. With out the family to raise it's children the massess turned away from morality and turned into the welfare state.
Now- can you argue your point of view with more than a "Nuh-Uh... Is Not"?
