Secularism is thriving in America. “Do not talk about politics or religion.” Americans have been excluding God from public life because it offends people and it is not so professional. Many consider secularism as a “neutral” position. Secularism does not recognize religion, faith, and God. How can secularism then defend freedom of religion and conscience? The Christian faith has produced tolerance by its very nature of following Jesus who never forced anyone to believe. Jesus sought to persuade the hearts and minds of the crowds that listened to him. Secularism is a huge step backwards from the preference of Christianity. Following Jesus has been the only ally to the freedom of conscience. The faith of Christians is more than a private conviction. Christianity is a public need. Faith in Jesus is a blessing to society and one that Christians must continue to argue and uphold. However, the apostle Paul spoke of those who will no longer honor and thank God. Paul revealed what would happen to them, and America appears to have gone down that path. This study observes God’s revelation in Romans 1, its fulfillment today, and pleads for the only path toward true freedom by a national preference for the Christian faith
