| The nation is not christian, and calling yourself christian doesn't mean you actually follow what Jesus said. The only duty of a democracy is reflecting the will of the people, everything else is your own perception of what a democracy should be, not what a democracy actually is. Democracy is not heaven on earth, the people's will is rarely beneficial to anyone but the majority, and even then, sometimes this is not realized. Why should a people care about the welfare of other people's? the conquest mentality brings power and wealth to the victors, why should they change it?
“Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.”
