"Faith and Hope," you say.

You don't mention Action. That is telling.

Christians talk a lot about Faith and Hope, always implying that one should not do anything because God will, because the Lord works in mysterious ways.

That is why Christianity is doomed. There was plenty of action when it flourished. Without the action, it's fading fast.

Faith wasn’t historically understood as opposite to action. The Christianity of history was the heart of empires. That’s when the faith produced its best, and that’s what we need to return to.

Odd, considering we’re told faith alone does not suffice.

>implying

That word is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. Historically, and arguably even today, Christianity has been a faith that has aggressively propagated itself and promoted its values in whatever societies it was present in.
