My pastor would specifically preach against the concept of a Christian nation - American Reformed Presbyterian. This is the chief problem in my view: lost pastors. Hierarchy - priest ruler.
I asked my minister point blank two years ago why he did not have the courage to keep our church open during the lockdowns, assuring him that his flock - or at least a goodly portion thereof- would have been right behind him. He turned beet red in shame and self-loathing, mumbling a few words about keeping the congregation "safe". A perfect reflection of the utter godlessness you have described. It is so difficult these days for a Christian these days to resist falling into the sin of despair.
