Ursa, take all those officially atheist communist states. If you add all the dead bodies up, the 'atheists' come out way ahead of the so-called christian nations. The atheists will have millions and millions more. But really, there never has been a christian nation and never will until Jesus returns. All christianity can hope to be is 'salt and light' in the nation that it is in. It is failing to do that right now in the U.S, where it is largely supporting a war-mongering pseudo-christian president and supporting Israel in it's destruction of the Palestinian people.
