I don't think that it refers to needed change. But change for change's sake is foolish.

Well Christian Conservatives are glad they followed God's Word! The result is ... USA being the ONLY nation founded on Judeo-Christian beliefs and the only country was has been BLESSED!

God knows best so it's for your own good to follow what He says and not mock it because of your lack of knowledge. Ignorance is never an excuse for the head in the sand stance while evil is hell bent on bringing down what is GOOD!

Yeah except they did listen. The verse is for the chosen of God to not associate with people who are rebellious of God.

The found fathers DID rebel against the people who were rebellious of God.
