“This you will never accomplish; for the world and the masses are and always will be un-Christian, even if they are all baptized and Christian in name. Christians are few and far between (as the saying is). Therefore, it is out of the question that there should be a common Christian government over the whole world, or indeed over single country or any considerable body of people, for the wicked always outnumber the good.” ML, Temporal Authority: To what Extent Should It Be Obeyed, LW, AE, 45:91
