What I was trying to say in post #103 was, unless we see how much we're asleep, we can't wake up. If we don't repent we don't get light. We Christians dominated the social conversation (repeatedly) in the past, and fat lot of good it did. So repent.

We talk of those things among believers, but I don't think we do that so much with those who have no light. But I get your point. Many times Christians squander the conversation by trying to lay down things like moral/political restrictions, which saves exactly no one, and in which there's no power of the good news! So to unbelievers it just looks like someone else spouting off things they prefer, without any apparent basis for those things (at least that they can see).
