I try to look at situations like this from the point of view of the 1st century Christians. They had no choice we do. They did not have Christian schools, we do. To go into the World and only want to live with Christians is not feasible. If this woman wanted a Christian environment she should have gone to where they are. She should have rented an apartment.
The World is the World we cannot avoid that. But we do not need a pure Christian environment to survive just as those Christians in Rome did not need a pure Christian environment to survive. It may be too late but we should have appreciated the pseudo Christian environment the United States provided. Due to our apathy and negligence it is no more. Now we have to do as Daniel and his friends did in Babylon. We can function as they did and if per chance we die, we die. What makes us better than Christians throughout history? We had it handed to us on the proverbial silver platter and threw it away.
