Imagine if the government tried to legislate on matters of such spiritual importance to us..like giving a litmus test in the event of the second coming. I mean really. My hopes are for a truly ...

The lack of well-being -- again, financial well-being -- must then be a sign of moral failing. The better off are better off because they are better people.
