Going to summers site one can click on crimes per farther down the page. The total crime rate did not diminish until law enforcement was greatly increased and even with that the crime rate in 2008 was many times higher than 1964, all this is from the same info source. Better than jumping back and forth.What info source? I haven't seen your info source at all… I'd like to see it, could you link it?
As I said I used summer's link.

Yet you continue to do it. I read your post after the bombing and assumed, sorry.
I'm not blaming today's christians at all, I'm merely pointing out that your contention that the removal of god from schools is causing society to decline doesn't make any sense because times of maximal chistianity aren't necessarily the most peaceful or prosperous. Of course I don't blame any current christians for those violent times, that'd be ridiculous, but by the same token you can't point to a secular society as being so much worse because it is secular.
I list several in a post to smax, just above.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
