I look forward with anticipation to finding out about this Golden Age, too. I won't nominate my favorite decade yet, but will offer a likely-relevant quote that is attributed to Will Rogers:
"Things ain't like they used to be! And they never was."

Re: Biblical Principle Golden Age, When And Where?
so long as the Biblical principles were honored, both in government and in the public sector.
​
Do you mean "Biblical principles" like slaughtering the folks that were native to the land, a la Joshua? Or can you perhaps point out a time when our government honored some other set of Biblical principles, like banning the consumption of catfish and shrimp?

Re: Biblical Principle Golden Age, When And Where?
it appears that Jar's MO of repeating answered questions is rubbing off on you
​
And it appears that Buz's MO of not answering direct questions after repeated askings is staying with you.
​
When was the Golden Age of True Christian Belief? 1938? The Roaring Twenties? When, Buz?

Has anyone mentioned Franklin D. Roosevelt yet? His era was as good as we've ever had as far as New Testament/Do Unto Others/Good Samaritan stuff with "doing unto the least of these" Jesusy sort of things.
​
Buz, are you going to claim the New Deal?

Re: 1800's Golden Age
I suppose we will have to wait until Buz explains why the Native Americans, Hawaiians, Mexicans, Spanish were not neighbors.
​
Custer didn't kill too many Samaritans, I don't think.
