Perhaps you've heard of "Christian Nationalism."  From the standpoint of many believers, Christian Nationalism seems, on paper, a good idea.  Why should not Christian values permeate a nation's culture?

     On the other hand, in a pluralistic society not everyone will or, to a degree, necessarily should, agree on what constitutes value.  Not everyone will want a world grounded with "Christian" values (whatever those are).  No one should be obligated to believe.

     It therefore seems that the onus is on those Christians who would insist that their values are the only ones of "value" to demonstrate that their values are indeed sufficient to bear the weight of their opposites and counters.  If they cannot do this, they are not values worth having, anyway.  An allegedly universal value should be able to encompass and explain all others.  That's its point.  Moreover, there is a vast difference between the person of God and the ways that people develop to explain or justify him.

     Jesus didn't criticize Roman society per se.  He criticized religious hypocrites.
