Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease.

Don't think the church has quite got the ceasing oppression in His name part down. Maybe sometime in the next couple thousand years.
As Gilbert Chesterson said, Christianity hasn't failed...it just hasn't been tried.
