Texas has the second highest domestic migration in the country (second only to Florida). New York, Illinois and California (worst) have negative migration rates.

My point is that they didn't bend to the Roman government.

Thousands of Christians were martyred in the first centuries after Christs death. Often they were tortured and/or crucified.

most people born now, do not want to have kids, based on the pure fact that it's too expensive, time consuming, and grueling in the modern era.

These people need to open a history book.

It's great! It only makes 4-6 servings of rice at a time but I prefer that because it means there's less leftovers

Someone gifted me a Le Creuset rice cooker. I use it at least once but often twice a week. At $200+ it's truly something I never would have bought myself.

It just relies on the individual to do it themselves instead of being state enforced.

Pretty much this. Christ's teachings focus on prayer, fasting and almsgiving at a personal and corporate (church) level regardless of which government is in power.

Anyone can misuse anything to harm someone

Jesus would also be a raging socialist.

Jesus was more or less apolitical in the gospel (e.g. "render unto caesar what is caesar's" )

He clearly states that to whom much is given much will be required though ergo almsgiving is a critical part of the faith.
