Of course, Christians should be good citizens! That is just common sense, most
Americans think. We want to expose our kids to religion so they'll turn out good and
learn values. Side-by-side this point of view is the belief that the key to improving our
nation is to teach our members Christian virtues. A lot of our nation's problems would be
addressed, it is said, if we had more virtuous citizens. That is why the church needs to
concentrate on (prioritize) teaching virtues, on nurturing good citizens, and not on
advocating particular political-structural solutions.
