Description

3 Things You'll Learn

1. Religion undergirds voluntary law-abiding behavior essential to democracy.
2. Without moral formation from faith, external force cannot sustain society.
3. America's Judeo-Christian roots provided the conscience for democratic freedoms.

Description:  Greg Lancaster shares a powerful observation from a Harvard Business School professor: democracy works because people voluntarily obey laws, largely due to religious teaching and accountability to God. As religion declines, society risks needing more police and losing the foundation of self-governance.

Notable Quotes

• "Democracy works because most people, most of the time, voluntarily choose to obey the law."
• "You can't hire enough police."
