Very interesting article

This is a story of a country—a deeply religious and very moral country. Perhaps the most moral country that ever existed. A country where hundreds of laws were developed to prevent its citizens from the least appearance of sin. The religious leaders paid tithe on their tiniest coins. They said long prayers and fasted two days a week. They were scrupulous about charity and good deeds. They believed that if they multiplied moral laws and they obeyed God perfectly enough, God would “forgive their sins, and heal their land.”
