What would it look like? What would be allowed and what would be forbidden? Can anyone make a clear picture?

And perhaps some of you would be tempted to say "it would be like in medieval times" but world did change a lot since then, human knowledge did grow as did technology, but if you think it would all go in an instant to middle ages then be it.

Here are some of my guesses based on what seem to be Christian desires and obsessions:

Abortion would be forbidden.
Contraception would be forbidden.
Only religious songs would be allowed.
LGBTQ people would be executed.
Divorce would be forbidden.
Dancing would be strictly supervised.
Creationism would be taught in schools.
There wouldn't be democracy but rather religious leaders would govern chosen by holy ghost.
There would be cameras everywhere and people in charge who would monitor if someone is masturbating.

Uh... no.

Abortion would be deregulated nation wide. meaning it is not mandated for every state to allow abortions. it would mean each state got to choose which state wanted to do abortions and which states did not have to do them, just like it was before roe v wade.

All we want is the right for like minded people to come together as a community and set rules to govern our selves. the less the government is involved the better.

2) you are thinking of catholicism not christianity. in the bible there is no prohibition meaning it is not for procreation only thus allowing for contraception. catholics believe sex is only for reproductive purposes only

3) again what church have you been too? now you sound like a southern baptist.

4) divorce is allowed in christianity and in the bible. if a spouce in unfaithful to her or his vows then a biblical divorce is allowed.

4) creationism would be taught along side evolution, as the two can be taught in such a way as to not conflict.

5) their would be a democracy again just think back to our greatest generation/the WWII generation. while not perfect both the "dims and republicans where represented in the congress and white house alike.

6) no that what the dims want.. cameras everywhere/control of the people. With in a christian government we believe what you do is between you and God.

How can you be so wrong about christian values if you hate them so much? could it be you have no real idea of what you hate and mock? Could it be you completely rely on stereotype and a blind racist type of anger based on ignorance and vitriol.

Think 1940 to 1960 pop culture and social interactions, now allow progression of society in race and gender equality. but maintain the family and personal dignity and have people grow up seeking to serve God country family THEN neighbor and Finally self.

Self and what makes you feel good is the only guideline now.

Agreed.  Great post.
